Ive been to asia pacific and they have lots of citrus variety anyone can find. Find all citrus fruit you can find : lemon,lime, oranges, ponkan etc.. slice thinly and put in a pitcher with water (iced preferred).Let it stand for an hour to let the citrus juice mix with water. Add honey or a bit of sweetener. Serve chilled.<BR/><BR/>Hope you like it!Enjoy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-86930678249298886032008-04-23T00:32:00.000-07:002008-04-23T00:32:00.000-07:00Hi Lauren. Thanks for the great juice suggestion. ...Hi Lauren. Thanks for the great juice suggestion. I will have to try it later in the day. By the way, I am addicted to ginger as well. I have 2 concoctions that I use, not only get me energized, but also help me with my allergies.<BR/><BR/>As you know, the pollen count in Houston can be ridiculous. A juice mixture I drink before bed includes 3-5 limes, a tablespoon of bee pollen, a dash of cayenne pepper, local organic honey, and cinnamon.<BR/><BR/>However, in the mornings, I add a 2-4 inch sliced piece of ginger to 4 cups of boiling water. While this simmers, I squeeze and place 5-6 kumquats (grown in my girlfriend's parent's backyard) in a 16 oz mug, and pour the ginger tea over it.<BR/><BR/>This tea gets me going in the morning, plus gets my nasal passages prepared for the humid, polluted morning Houston air. Once you finish the tea, you can eat the kumquats, as is for an added vitamin C boost. <BR/><BR/>Sincere~Sincerehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08884453645704249555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-67867986126746874082008-04-14T20:55:00.000-07:002008-04-14T20:55:00.000-07:00Pete,I am so addicted to Ginger now.

I made a fresh Spinach, cucumber, orange, and ginger juice and it was good. <BR/><BR/> I'm glad you enjoyed it. I've never tried the Vita mixer, but I heard it is awesome. Keeping the fiber definitely has it's benefits. 8-)Lauren Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07329485509526075515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-26592145888383807082008-04-13T08:47:00.000-07:002008-04-13T08:47:00.000-07:00Lauren,This is the first time I had tried ginger i...Lauren,<BR/><BR/>This is the first time I had tried ginger in juice, and it was a nice surprise!<BR/><BR/>I threw other things into the mis as well...beets, celery, blueberries.....turns out it's all very good as long as it is fresh. <BR/><BR/>I use both an Omega juicer (which is more of a router/press, and a vita mix. I like the vita-mix becuase it keeps all the fiber. <BR/><BR/>Whenever I juice, I don't need my morning coffee. I just make sure the juice is predominantly vegetable juice with the fruits there to sweeten the taste. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the post.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11065624771957970054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-44022137139564923752008-04-07T04:41:00.000-07:002008-04-07T04:41:00.000-07:00Lauen,I'd rather eat my carrots, lol.Not that I do...Lauen,<BR/><BR/>I'd rather eat my carrots, lol.<BR/><BR/>Not that I don't already get enough fiber!Tracy Reifkindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868257020358013257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-23842238865768672412008-04-04T14:36:00.000-07:002008-04-04T14:36:00.000-07:00Jessica,I wonder why that is?

Even if they're fresh. <BR/><BR/>Your concoction of teas sounds tasty. Stevia is a wonderful herbal sweetener.

I do better with fruits in their regular form and only after I workout. Juices tend to give me a spike in energy than I crash really bad. I also have to stay clear of caffeine..till my adrenal levels stabilize. <BR/><BR/>I kind of have something but its more for when I feel like I am just really run down or wiped out after a workout. <BR/><BR/>I boil decaffeinated green tea and decaffeinated black tea, 1 glove or garlic crushed, and one teaspoon of ginger, and one teaspoon of organic Honey from Trader Joe's. I have never tried Stevia but I think I might try that instead. It does not taste all that good but it makes me feel better. <BR/><BR/>Hope is Ben is doing better. <BR/>ReginaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-80629252104550913732008-04-02T07:02:00.000-07:002008-04-02T07:02:00.000-07:00Mike,Your antioxidant blend sounds great.

Stevia is the best sweetener. <BR/><BR/>I was never one to do well on juices or too many carbs. I normally have great energy on protein drinks with my added flax oils. But I wanted to sort of temporarily change things up and so far it has surprisingly felt good. <BR/><BR/>.Lauren Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07329485509526075515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-10277706292248767422008-04-02T01:38:00.000-07:002008-04-02T01:38:00.000-07:00Hi, Lauren !Juices or smoothies are perfect before...Hi, Lauren !<BR/>Juices or smoothies are perfect before and after a workout. But personaly I never combine fruits and vegetables. Here are two examples for a simple 100% natural juice and natural smoothie.

I add some stevia to the mix for taste and keep it in the fridge to cool it. <BR/><BR/>I sip on it all day and during workouts. Great stuff and better than all the flavored water crap that is popular these days. <BR/><BR/>All the hydrating benefits of water and tons of anti-oxidants, metabolism boosters, energizers, and anti-estrogen fighters all in one! <BR/><BR/>Mikewww.mikemahler.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450629169256051892noreply@blogger.com
