What Are Green Juices?

We are sure that you have already heard a thousand times about the green juices that celebrities take in their diets. By now, these drinks have become very popular in recent years and are excellent support for all those trying to lose weight and eliminate toxins from your body.

Green juices are smoothies made from green leafy vegetables, whose colour is due to the high content of chlorophyll, and they are prepared with an additional sweet ingredient, such as fruit.

Green leafy vegetables are very rich in chlorophyll. This means that when we introduce spinach, lettuce, kale or other similar ingredients into our body, they are converted into haemoglobin and our ability to oxygenate the blood in our body increases.

Do we need to take antioxidants in our diet? The resounding answer is YES!

Due to the lifestyle we lead, stress, pollution and toxins have become our main enemies. Our body is weakening, we lose energy, and we get sick more regularly.

Every time we breathe, we generate uncontrollable oxidants that damage our cells; and although we do not want to assume it (we are still “little kids,” but we must bear in mind that we already have an age).

The older we are, the less natural antioxidants our body produces to keep these destructive molecules at bay. So when these accumulate, health deteriorates, and ageing accelerates.

That is why we wanted to let you know the benefits that a recipe such as this antioxidant green juice can bring you, which is a vitamin C bomb.

How to make an antioxidant Green Juice

• Step 2:Next, we will clean the lettuce and spinach.
• Step 3:The next step will be to put all the ingredients in our blender or smoothie maker, along with the honey, chia seeds and the lime (or lemon ) game.
• Step 4:We beat about 10-15 seconds, simply so that the ingredients are chopped a little, and we add the ice

Properties and Benefits of Chia seeds

For years, the Inca, Mayan and Aztec peoples used it as the main source of food due to its large number of beneficial contributions and its ability to be stored for years without deteriorating, thanks to the antioxidant gel that covers the grains.

It is said that these cultures believed that a small amount of chia could keep a wrestler on his feet for an entire day – they will have to be listened to!

At present, it is a food that has seen its popularity grow due to studies being carried out to consider it as one of the treatments for type two diabetes.

Also, a trick to keep in mind; is that when soaked in the cold water for 20 or 30 minutes, the seeds give off a gel that, if consumed half an hour before eating food, will help you eat less and feel satisfied due to its ability to absorb liquids.

Did you know that its high content of dietary fibre also makes it an excellent digestion ally? Well YES !! Especially for people who suffer from constipation and those who have hearing problems due to failure in the stomach or intestines.

Another benefit is the ability to gain muscle mass because it quickly transports nutrients to tissues and allows them to be used by cells.

Several studies indicate that taking it daily reduces pain in the joints, especially in the knees, so some coaches recommend them for athletes. So, guys, you know chia is your new ally in the gym
