Freshness Test
Turnips are easily grown by yourself. They are hardy vegetables and if you are planning on juicing turnips or turnip greens, consider growing them yourself.
Choose turnips that are firm and solid.
Important
Turnip juice should never be drunk by itself. Combine with other vegetables that are a good source of magnesium.
General
Turnip greens are very high in calcium. Turnip roots are also high in calcium, but the greens provide more calcium. In fact, turnip greens contain more calcium than almost all other vegetables and also milk.
Mix turnip juice or turnip green juice with other vegetables that are a good source of magnesium such as alfalfa sprouts, dandelion greens, parsley, cabbage, sweet peppers, etc. The reason why you want to mix with vegetables that contain magnesium is because magnesium helps the body use calcium more effectively.
Vitamin C also helps the body use calcium more effectively, but almost all vegetables will supply some Vitamin C.

Have you been wanting to do hatha yoga (stretching) but have found it either too difficult or you are not that flexible? If yes, and even if no, watch Jesse do some pure hatha yoga routines.
Unlike flow yoga
, each pose in pure or traditional hatha yoga is held for a few minutes. While holding the pose, you focus the mind on the stretch. When you focus the mind, that's when you find silence.
Jesse is not flexible — never has been and probably never will be flexible like others. But it doesn't matter. In pure hatha yoga, how flexible you are makes no difference. It's all about loving the pose and focussing the mind on the stretch.
If you want to learn pure hatha yoga, now you can by following Jesse on a series of hatha yoga routines.
