Super Life-Boosting Juice Drink - The Lemon Ginger Blast

I first learned of this juice recipe several years ago while late-night surfing on YouTube and stumbled across a video by a guy named Lou Corona. Lou says that he has been drinking this juice every day for over 40 years and that after the first 6 months of drinking it it totally cured him of many aliments that he was suffering from, including acne, allergies, major constipation (only going to the bathroom every 2 to 3 weeks) and even a tumour that he had on the back of his head. Lou also claims that the recipe was given to him while he was having a near-death experience.

Ingredients:

3 Large Gala Apples (any type will do though)
2 Large Conference Pears (any type will do though)
5 Large Sticks Of Celery
1 Cucumber
Ginger (as much as you like. I use quite a lot [see images])
2 Fresh Chili Peppers (or as much as you can handle. For this juice I used 2 Green Jalapeños but you could use much hotter ones)
2 Large Lemons
Baby Spinach 240g (8.5oz)
Fresh Mint 60g (2.1oz)
Wild Rocket (Arugula) 140g (5oz)
Fresh Coriander (Cilantro) 150g (5.2oz)
Fresh Flat Leaf Parsley 200g (7oz)
(Should also have Turmeric root as well but I can't get hold of that around these parts)

These ingredients cost me just under £15 ($21)

I don't peel any of the items, including the ginger, but do cut up the apples (quartered), pears (quartered), lemons (halved) and ginger (chopped into small pieces) as it is easier on the juicer having the harder texture fruits in smaller parts.

The juicer that I use is a masticating model. I used to use a centrifugal model but they are less efficient and don't last too long if you use them regularly.

All these ingredients will make approximately 1.5 litres (53 fl oz) Enough for 3 or 4 people/drinks. 2 x that jug in the picture above.

This juice is said to be:

• Anti-viral
• Anti-bacterial
• Anti-fugal
• Anti-mucus
• Anti-fat
• Anti-parasitic
• Oxygenating
• Alkalonising
• Detoxifying
• Enhances circulation
• Neutralises free-radicals from damaging your cells (anti-ageing)
• Removes plaque from your arteries
• Energise you

All I know is that I have been drinking it, not every day, but regularly for a good few years now and it certainly does make changes to your system. You can really feel the difference on many levels.
One thing you will notice quite quickly after drink it regularly is that your skin will start to look so much more health on your face.

You only need to take a look at Lou Corona to see how effective this juice is. He's 67 and looks like he's around 45.
