What is Green Juice & Why Should I Be Green Juicing? Health Articles | June 19 Toby Alderweireld Hotspur Jersey , 2012 Sometimes I get so wrapped up in the whirl of my Breville Juicer, that I forget there are so many still needing to understand what the heck green juice is and what are the benefits of daily green juicing. So, this post is for you green juicing newbies - and truly it is for all of us as a reminder!
What is Green Juice?
Green juice is made when primarily vegetables (see next paragraph), and sometimes a small amount of fruit, are processed through an appliance called a juicer. A juicer extracts the liquid nutrition from the produce leaving the pulp behind.
Some of my favorite green veggies to use are cucumbers, celery Son Heung-min Hotspur Jersey , kale, chard, romaine lettuce, broccoli, parsley, sprouts Pau Lopez Hotspur Jersey , and spinach.? Other veggies that add a pop are: red, yellow or orange peppers, garlic, ginger, red cabbage, and a carrot or so. When considering adding in some fruit Nabil Bentaleb Hotspur Jersey , lemons and limes can be used freely. However, try to limit other fruits to one piece or so to keep the sugar intake low and the green, alkaline goodness at the center of attention! Some good fruit choices are one serving of apples, pears, or melons.
Why Should I Green Juice?
This is a great question, and one I get often. When I do a demo Moussa Sissoko Hotspur Jersey , it is easy to see that the amount of produce I put through my juicer is way more than I care to eat in a day and is not a combination I would find appealing if left in its whole form.

I am in essence, getting the pure life-force from the plants! Some people even refer to it as "plant blood", which can either sound super cool or super icky...so, do what you will with that term!?

Although I have three different types of juicers, my personal favorite and my daily go-to is my Breville. Love. It.
Parenting - Discipline In The Modern World Family Articles | March 13, 2007 Discipline is a necessary part of parenting but the subject of parenting and discipline has been hotly debated in recent years, often leaving parents confused about just how to discipline their children.
The subject of parenting and discipline often sparks heated debate and much of this stems from the use of the word 'discipline' itself, which conjures up a picture of harsh and unreasonable punishment in the minds of many parents. Indeed, the debate over discipline has resulted in many parents moving to the opposite and of the scale and adopting an approach which can best be described as excessively permissive.
We all need discipline in our lives and Kyle Walker Hotspur Jersey , as adults, we see this as self-discipline. We know what is right and what is wrong and what we should do and what we should not do. We also know that there are many things in life which we don't particularly want to do, but which are necessary if we are to progress through the trials and tribulations of everyday life.
But such self-discipline does not come naturally and it is something that we have to learn as we grow up and something that as parents we need to teach our children.
The first and perhaps most important lesson which we have to learn as parents is that our children are individuals and that our approach to disciplining individual children needs to recognize this fact. What may be appropriate for one child will not necessarily be appropriate or effective with another.
The second thing that we need to realize is that discipline must be linked to a child's level of understanding. While this is largely a function of age, children will develop both physically and intellectually at differing rates and this too needs to be taken into account.
For example, there is little point in trying to have a deep and meaningful discussion with a three year old about the rights and wrongs of taking sweets from the shelf in the local supermarket. At the same time, sending a sixteen year old to his room simply because
