BASIL JUICE

Traditionally Used For:

Appetite Stimulant	Headaches
Stomach

A Good Source Of:

Magnesium	Potassium	Vitamin A
Chlorophyll

Freshness Test:

Basil can be bought from your local grocery store, usually in plastic contains to keep the Basil fresh. But you can also grow Basil yourself.

Important:

Due to the fact that Basil is a green juice, you will find it beneficial to have no more than about ¼ of your juice consisting of green juice.

General:

I enjoy adding a few leaves of fresh Basil every now and then to my juice. I like to wrap the Basil leaves in another leaf to help the juicer extract the juice more easily.
