Benefits of Fresh Juices
Through Fresh juices the body can absorb larger amounts of oxygen, nutrients, enzymes, and phytonutrients, the powerful substances that fight diseases. Drinking one eight ounce glass of a fresh juice or smoothie enhances the body’s immune system and metabolism and provides essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.[1]

Chock full of powerful vitamins and essential minerals, our Galactic Green fresh juice is a delightful blend of wheatgrass, kale, spinach, celery, parsley, cucumbers, carrots, beets, and fresh mint.
