My main purpose for creating this green juice recipe was to have a drink that would restore electrolytes, nutrients and minerals lost after an intense workout, but can also be consumed before. I also wanted to make sure this drink would help with reducing inflammation and any soreness. This green juice does all that and provides a natural vegan protein (spirulina) to the body. I’ve included many anti-inflammatory vegetables, which is beneficial for those with conditions like arthritis.
