Pineapple, Beets and Nectarine Juicing Recipe: Family of Five Black Folks Eating Right




If you are on a whole food plant based diet and you make your own juice, you are going to enjoy this recipe. I often use pineapples in my juice. 

Pineapples do a wonder job at masking the vegetables, and the grape fruit I use. 

Pineapples will also make your juice taste like you've added a ton of sugar and you only need ONE to do the job. 

No lie try it for yourself!

The recipe below calls for quite a bit of fruit, and all of my fruit I purchase from my local Farmer's Market.

The juicer that I use is the Omega Series…I love this juicer!

Understanding Your Body~Plant Based Diet~Black Folks Eating Right



       People for centuries have turned to juicing to improve their overall health, increase their energy, and combat common health problems. 

Imhotep one of our African Ancestors, recognized the importance plants were to our overall well-being.  Later on the Grecian  Hippocrates was quoted saying, “let thy food be thy medicine…”  just as Imhotep used plants to cure humans; so did Hippocrates.


                     Juicing does work for everyone, it’s just not everyone will like or need the popular juicing recipes that are relatively easy to find on the internet.
 But with a little investigation, you can create a juice recipe that’s geared towards your specific health needs; as well as taste. The first step is to find out and understand what is truly going on with your body. Find out what will help your condition and what vitamins or minerals you may be lacking.

For years, I was told by doctors that I had to take Iron Supplement , these pills cause me to be become nauseated, and I hate that feeling.  I was determine to find a natural way of getting Iron into my body. And meat is not the answer!

Green leafy vegetable contains the Iron we need for our bodies..

Other plants that are high in Iron:
Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Dried Apricots
Fresh Parsley
Dried Coconut 


               Research is showing that many of the elements people are complaining about may be due to a lack of a certain vitamin in their diets. Once you have determined what is wrong. You can then create a juice that is aimed to cure your elements.

There is almost no limit to what you can create for your family, when it comes to juicing.

Mingz Plant Base Diet




Hello,
What a lovely day it has been today.
 A bit breezy yet warm, I have been seeing on the internet
That the weather over on the West Coast and Midwest is cold, cold and snow…
Lived in Milwaukee for over 10 years, when it snows it snows…and the temps are usually 20 or below.
Crazy!
One of the things I like about the south is its weather in the winter time, it can get cold but for the most part…
NO SNOW!! 
But I digress…




Juicing~
Still loving it!
Since I have been juicing; I have lost 15 pounds…
15 in two weeks that would have never taken place on some traditional diet.


I also decided not to number the days; because to me implies  I will be ended this
And I will not…
I will never go back to eating unhealthy again.
This is my body, and I only have one…so I plan to take care of it from here on out!
Peace Love and Olive Oil Y’all….
