Endive tonic

If the Christmas excesses are taking their toll on you, now is the time to take action. So we suggest you start the day with an endive tonic to help your body to cleanse itself.

It is recommended take this juice on an empty stomach since it is first thing in the morning when our body is in the elimination phase.

We have prepared this tonic with a base recipe made with vegetables and apple with nutrients and properties to cleanse the liver. But if you want to add an extra you can use any of the 4 options that we show you.

Diuretic Plus: use a good handful of washed parsley leaves. With this option you will also be helping your kidneys.

Plus antioxidant: Add a tangerine or half an orange to the base recipe. It gives it a rich flavor and also provides nutrients to fight degenerative diseases.

Plus alkaline: add half a lemon to get an even more alkaline juice and, incidentally, increase the supply of vitamin C.

Plus cleaning: Prepare an infusion of boldo, let it cool and add it to the base preparation. This will increase the juice's ability to purify the body.

As I have commented on the endive tonic will help you cleanse your body But remember that when it comes to food, there are no miracles. To wear a healthy life you have to follow a varied diet and do physical exercise… Why don't we start today?
