Dandelion-Spinach Detox Juice
Long praised for their liver-detoxifying properties, dandelion greens are rich in beta-carotene and have a signature bitter bite to them. Add more lemon (or toss in some agave) to taste if the juice is too bitter for you.
Spinach’s list of vitamins and nutrients is too long to list here, but let’s start with vitamin K, vintaim A, manganese, folate, magnesium, and iron (thinking of sneaking an extra handful of leaves into your juice yet?) If after you’re finished with this recipe, be sure to checkout our growing list of spinach blog archives for some other info and ideas on how to use this magical green!
- 1/2 bunch dandelion greens
- 4 cups spinach
- 4 carrots
- 1/2 cucumber
- 5 stalks celery
- 1/2 lemon, peeled
Feed the dandelion greens and spinach into your juicer. Then add three carrots and the rest of the ingredients, using the last carrot to push all the rest of the ingredients through. Drink immediately.
Green Lemonade

Juicing with ginger!
Ginger can be added to almost all your favorite juicing recipes! The daily recommendation is 5g, so I usually use recipes that call for 1 inch of ginger.

Grape Fruit, Carrot and Ginger Juice

Vibrant Veggies
This juice gives a wake-up call to your digestive system, getting it “on-line” for the day, gently. Because of its dense nutrients, dilute the juice concentrate with water. A 50/50 split of juice and filtered water does the trick. Choose organic veggies for the best taste and absorption.
- 1 medium cucumber
- 4 stalks of celery
- 2-3 handfuls of spinach
- 8 green or red leafy lettuce leaves
- 1 handful of flat-leaf or curly parsley
- ½ – 1 lemon
- Options: add arugula, kale, alfalfa sprouts, or micro-greens.
Trail Runner’s ‘Tea’
- 2-3 oranges
- 1-2 hard pears
- 1 small sweet potato/yam
- Crushed ice
Juice all the greens together and add lemon to your taste. Lemon will enhance the alkalinity of the juice. Remember to mix the juice with filtered water at a 1 to 1 ratio.
