And for the third installment today on my Juice focus, I’ve chosen one that I leave for those cheat days when I’m ok loading up on fruits because there aren’t any greens to help balance the sugar spike. That said, this is a great recipe packed with powerful antioxidants, and so long as you indulge now and then on a treat like this, your body can handle the insulin spike with ease, and by adding a nut butter to add some protein and fiber, you can help balance the effects of the fruits.
Enjoy!
