Juicing with bitter Herbs

Juicing with bitter herbs: spring/winter tonic. Chicoria Catalogna, cilantro, lemon, peppers, apple and kale, ginger: Building a green juicePuntarelle or cicoria di catalogna, Italian Chicory is a nice green with a pleasant bitter edge that goes well in a green juice.
     The bitter greens are good sources of vitamin K, folate and Vitamin A. These herb power foods, open up the liver and gallbladder, they stimulate digestive enzymes. I also and galanga root and ginger to further actualize the stimulating warming properties. I am using the dark green poblano pepper, jalapeño and habanero papers. This juice is a good tonic for the blood and thins the mucus secretions.
