Juicing Recipes for Energy

juicer recipes for energyNeed a little extra zip, and you want to do it naturally, healthily and without the aid of stimulants. If so you’re in the right place. Here are some great juicer recipes for energy that you can make at home with your juice extractor. Green juices and citrus fruit juices are especially good for providing energy because of their detoxification abilities and their natural electrolytes respectively. Enjoy!

Energy Juice Recipe #1 – Get-up-and-go Greens
1 apples
3 celery stalks
handful of spinach
handful of kale
1″ slice of ginger

This get-up-and-go juice is a fantastic energy enhancer. It’s packed with blood-purifying greens, minerals and vitamins. Spinach and kale are abundant with beta-carotene and vitamin C. It helps with liver cleansing and supports blood flow. Celery is an extremely alkaline vegetable and helps with digestion. It gives you a good amount of magnesium, calcium and natural sodium, which together helps transmit signals from our brains to our muscles so that they function properly, clearly a benefit for energy levels. Ginger is excellent at helping to reduce inflammation in the body, especially in the joints, therefore helping to support maneuverability.

Juicing Recipes for Energy #2 – Citrus Electrolyte Blast
2 oranges
1/2 a large pink grapefruit
1 tangerine
1/2 of a lemon

Oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, limes and lemons–try to have these fruits always on hand because they are excellent natural sources of electrolytes. Oranges are an especially great choice. That’s why you might have seen athletes knocking back some juicy slices or downing an orange juice. Citrus juice really does make for great juicer recipes for energy. Don’t juice the peels they make for a very unpleasant taste and contain oils that can upset digestion. The white pith, however, is very healthy and loaded with antioxidants, more so than the flesh in fact!

Juice Recipes for Energy #3 – Veggie Vroom
4 Carrots
1 apple
3 Stalks of celery
1 Handful of spinach
1/4 cup of fresh parsley

Parsley is quite powerful and must always be combined with other juices. Use only tiny amounts at any given time. Parsley is rich in vitamin C and is known as a general stimulant for the body. Celery juice is a great neural tonic and overall body builder. It can help with muscle exhaustion. This juice is good for healthy hair and skin too.

Juicing Recipes for Vitamin C


Vitamin C

Vitamin C is one of the most well known of nutrients. Just about everyone knows that oranges are a great source of vitamin C and that vitamin C is good for the immune system and for fighting off colds. In addition to this vitamin C delivers a variety of other health benefits too. As a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C protects LDL cholesterol in the blood stream from oxidative damage. Without this protective effect, damaged LDL cholesterol will attach itself to the artery wall and start developing into a hard plaque called atherosclerosis, a health condition that is a leading contributor to heart disease. Vitamin C is also 100% essential for the creation of collagen – the sticky protein that literally holds our cells together. Without collagen we would fall apart!

Below is a table that gives the nutritional value of vitamin C in fruits and vegetables that are generally availble and practical for juicing. There are other fruits such as the loganberry, Indian gooseberry and kakadu plum that contain incredibly high levels of vitamin C but are not easy to come by. Below the chart are some juicing recipes that are great sources of vitamin C.
