Flu Fighter and Immune System Booster.

My son and I went to visit my parents this past weekend. We had a great time, but I didn't get much sleep. He slept in the room next to mine, and I heard him coughing ALL night. On Saturday, he coughed all day too and had a horribly runny nose. As soon as we got home on Saturday afternoon I made some fresh immune boosting juice right away. I used the first recipe below. It had a bit of a bite to it, so I added an extra apple and 5 strawberries to his to sweeten it up a little more. I'm guessing this will be a regular drink around here this fall and winter!

Juice the garlic first. Next juice the celery and parsley together. To juice the parsley, tuck the stems and the leaves into the groove of the celery sticks. Finish juicing with the carrots and apples

This juice is great for building and maintaining the immune system.
