Hey everyone.
As I am doing a special on juicers to my newsletter subscribers (sign up here for discounts, I send out some neat alkaline diet discounts every single Wednesday) I thought it might be a nice idea to send out my latest, big bad (ass) green drink I’ve been making for myself in recent weeks.
I’ve discovered a little organic shop right near where I live that has opened my eyes to some brilliantly dark-green leafy veggies that I’m now incorporating into my green juice each morning.
So here it is: Ross’s Bad-Ass Greens
Serves 2
Ingredients
One stalk of kale (or a handful if you buy it off the stalk)
4 sticks of chard
2 handfuls of baby spinach leaves
2 sticks of celery
1 (1/2 if its a biggie) cucumber
5 broccoli florets
1 inch of raw root ginger
Instructions
Juice it all through your juicer, putting the ginger in with something that is high-water such as the cucumber. Enjoy immediately and feel the buzz!
Have a great week
Ross

Hi Ross, I just want to double check that the green juice is ok without all the pulp and fibre? I have a juicer and this will remove all of the flesh, so just want to make sure that the green juice is also as good as the blended green smoothie drinks i read alot about.
Thanks
hi Ross,i have the same question like Hal thanke you.
Remove my email address from your list.
I will not subscribe to anyone no matter how much I like the alkaline diet if they endorse Tony Robbins…his group from Arizona are crooks, stealing money from people for seminars they never held.
Hi Marianne, you just have to hit the ‘unsubscribe’ button on any of my emails.
Thanks
I’m not familiar with chard. What is it?
Its a green leafy plant, similar to silverbeet.
This green drink looking good. it will be helpful for the thyroid activity.
Hi,
your green drink looks like a good way to start/ revive the day, but raw broccoli, cabbage etc reduce thyroid activity, an under active thyroid is bad enough without reduced activity, would par-steaming the broccoli first to get rid of the goitrogen spoil the mix?
Regards Hal.
wow thats some serious green cocktail of good stuff, ive done the green smoothie before but not with the broccoli, will give it a go
thanks
