on the channel, activate the bell, because there is a new video here every day, I know you don't
you won't want to miss, several juice recipes, several cool tips, lots of interesting stuff. Well guys, before I start sharing the recipe
even, I have to tell you a little bit about the detox juice, right, which is the juice that
we will do. Many people ask me: “ah Patricia,
Does detox juice really work? Isn't this a fad invention? Actually, no, we have to see
in a comprehensive way. Obviously, the juice, by itself, will not
make you lose belly, but it has agents that can make it easier to reduce swelling, they can make it easier
you eat less at your next meal, and all of this contributes to you being able to,
In the medium to long term, losing belly fat is not a magic formula, of course. And, depending on what you change in each juice,
you can have a better juice for those who want to take better care of their skin and hair. You can have a better juice for those who want
in fact lose weight, increase thermogenesis, right, metabolism. You can have a special juice for those who
want to increase immunity, then depending on the ingredients you put in your juice,
you will get different results. I even have a video talking about the ingredients
of a good detox juice, with several cool options, if you haven't seen it yet, take a look
there because there are other options, besides the one I'm going to show you now. But then, let's start the recipe. I was thinking: well, how am I going to do it,
because in fact the blender makes noise, right, and I won't be able to keep talking
with the blender beating, so I'm going to put it here, I beat it a little, because if
If I put all this together it's going to turn into a mess, right? It's not going to add up right.
we'll have to keep stirring with a spoon. So I'll put it here in parts, I'll
explaining, I'm putting it in, and then I'm stopping the blender so we can go, to go
passing on to you the things that are here, okay? I'll start with the first ingredient,
which is the cucumber. Why did I choose the cucumber? The cucumber is very interesting for you to put
in any detox juice, as a base, because it is super rich in fiber, super rich in
water, many times I won't even need to use the water I have here, because the cucumber,
by itself, it already has a super high concentration of water. And the cucumber, it can make your
body excretes more sodium, eliminates excess water, liquid inside our body,
so it helps to reduce swelling, and when we reduce swelling, we can reduce it a lot
abdominal circumference, momentarily of course, as I told you, nothing works miracles,
but cucumber can help you a lot, besides having countless vitamins, minerals, fiber,
keep the cucumber peel, it is, because many of the vitamins and minerals are in the peel. So I'll put the cucumber here, if necessary
I'm going to add a little water so we can start beating it, let me get it
a spoon to help me, which will make it easier, so that everything doesn't fall here on the side of
out and start making a mess. So here we go: cucumber is gone, I'm going to hit
it a little bit and then I'll add the rest of the ingredients. Let me add a little water to beat,
to make it look more like juice, less like a smoothie. Water, people, also has a super role
important, right, it helps to hydrate our body, all metabolic reactions happen
in an aqueous medium, so it is very interesting that we drink as much water as possible per day,
in our meal, in our food, and one thing I was going to say that is cool about
green juice, it's because sometimes it ends up being a way for you to add vegetables, legumes
at meals you wouldn't normally eat, like breakfast, snacks
in the afternoon, this is not very common: you eat a cucumber for breakfast. So, it turns out that it is quite cool that you use
green juice in the morning or as an afternoon snack, or even before bed, because it is a way
of you adding more vegetables, legumes and greens at times when we normally
does not consume. Great, so the cucumber is almost there. After the cucumber I'm going to put the cabbage, because
it is also more fibrous, and then as I add the other ingredients, it
keep hitting more. Why am I putting it like this, little by little?
people? Because I'm not going to strain my juice, if I
straining the juice I will lose all the fibers, and then there will be no point in me being
saying that it is a source of fiber, a source of fiber. So, I got wet here with my kale,
so kale is super rich in fiber, so again, it's interesting that you
do not strain the juice. Kale is super rich in calcium, so
If you are a vegetarian and need more sources of calcium, kale is a great option,
and it is rich in iron, in various minerals, in various vitamins, so it is super interesting
you put some dark green vegetable. “Oh Patricia, I don’t have any kale at home,
I have, I don't know, spinach, can I put it in?” You can put it in. “Can I put arugula?” You can put it in. If you want to change the kale for something else
dark green vegetable, there is no problem at all, always remembering that kale has a flavor
a little more neutral, so that's why we normally put kale in
juice, because it won't taste like anything, practically, so it's much easier
of you taking. Let's beat the cabbage now, then. So, I don't know if you noticed, but there was
one time my cabbage got kind of stuck here, because it's very fibrous, and I used
the pulse of the blender, every blender, no matter how simple, has this function
pulsar, which is to give that higher speed of a lower frequency. And why people? Because we can never, ever, in
any time, put knife, fork, spoon with the blender running, otherwise you
you'll be left without a blender, but worse: you could be left without a hand too, so please, very much
careful. The apple then, I'm using the apple
now. My apple was too small, so
I ended up taking 2, but since this juice yields a lot, it can be enough for 2 people, you see. The apple will have 2 functions here: first,
that it will sweeten your juice naturally, because it is already super sweet, and secondly,
for the properties of the apple. There is even a saying in English that says that
1 apple a day keeps the doctor away from us, because it has a little water
because I put a little lemon juice in it, so it doesn't turn black, so you don't
see it black, but at home you don't need to, because you'll chop it right away. So, the apple is very interesting,
because it has several vitamins, several minerals, it is very good for the lungs,
It has a lot of antioxidants, so it is very interesting for our body.
and it leaves a very good taste in the juice, and there is no need to sweeten it, which I think is best of all,
because it doesn't make much sense to make a detox juice and fill it with sugar or sweetener
right, because it really doesn't make any sense. So let's go, hit a little more. So let's go, now, lastly,
lemon, which is a super source of vitamin C. Vitamin C, you remember I said that
Does cabbage have iron? The iron in cabbage is non-heme iron, it is
an iron that is not bound to a protein, because cabbage is a vegetable. So, in order for you to optimize absorption
of this iron in kale, it is very important that you have a good source of vitamin C. I chose lemon because it also gives a
sour, it's super good, and mint, which is super interesting, has several properties
very cool, I even have a video talking about mint, all its properties,
the benefits, if you want to know more in depth, take a look at the video
because it is quite extensive, and you will certainly like to know more. Let's hit then, to finish, and then we will
let it beat a little longer so that it becomes much easier for us to drink it. Well, then I've let it beat, you beat it
according to the texture you want, if you want it thicker, you
leave less, if you want more liquid, you leave more, anyway, it depends on the customer's taste. And then, we put it in the glass, like I told you,
It yields well, it yields a lot, and even more so because I put 2 apples in it, so it will be enough easily.
for 2 people. And, guys, it's a great option for you
have for breakfast, for you to have as an afternoon snack. “Oh, Patricia, my breakfast has
that it should be just that?” I’m not saying that, I’m saying that
is an option for you to add to your breakfast. It may be just that, it may have
more thing, it will depend on what, your needs, what you calculated for you, you and
your nutritionist, anyway, it's just so you know that it doesn't necessarily need to be
Just the juice is fine, but you can also use it if you want. So, did you like the recipe? Is there any ingredient you would change? Is there any juice you would make differently? Do you have any cool detox juice recipes?
