in Natural Medicine2 years ago

Hello Natural Medicine Lovers, meet again with umirais, I hope you are not bored with the various recipes about natural medicine that I share, this recipe I got from my grandparents who know about natural medicine, also from my personal experience and the experience of my friends. I like to share natural medicine recipes because I hope many people will realize how to maintain their health with natural medicine so they don't get sick. Take a little time to study natural medicine and maybe one day, our knowledge will be useful to save the people around us.

In this world there are a variety of fruits and vegetables that contain a variety of vitamins that are needed by our bodies.

To get the vitamins contained in these fruits and various vegetables, we must know how to process them properly, so as not to lose these vitamins. for example we should not cook green vegetables too long.

For fruit we can eat it directly without being processed first, we can also make it into fresh juice. We can also combine a variety of vegetables with fruits into a variety of juices that are fresh and nutritious. Like we can make carrot juice with dragon fruit which is efficacious for maintaining eye health, sweet mustard juice with pineapple to lower bad cholesterol levels in the body, mango juice with spinach to keep blood pressure stable and maintain eye health, pakcoy vegetable combination pineapple juice to maintain heart health.

Today I got a gift from my neighbor who just got home from a trip. My neighbor gave me pakcoy vegetables. At first I intended to process this pakcoy vegetable by sauteing it. But when I saw the freshness of this pakcoy vegetable, I was worried that I would lose the nutrients contained in this pakcoy vegetable, so I will make juice from this pakcoy vegetable (it must be fresh).

So I bought a peeled pineapple to combine it with the soft vegetable pakcoy. Combination of fresh pineapple with Pakcoy vegetable which is slightly sweet with a soft texture, will produce fresh juice with an interesting blend of flavors.

I prefer to use a blender to make juice instead of using a juicer because I feel I get more crude fiber dissolved in water with a blender.

Good luck trying fresh and nutritious juices to maintain heart health.
