I have a question for you. Did you know January 26th is National Green Juice Day? Do you drink Green Juice? Because I am telling you no, matter how good this beverage is for us I will pass on it. Which is sad because it would allow me to get in the Fruits and Vegetables I need as well as Charlie and David. As well as help me with the weight loss I’m struggling with. But just seeing this green drink turns my stomach.
Health food and drink producer Evolution Fresh started National Green Juice Day as a way of encouraging those who’ve made a New Year’s resolution to stay or get healthy. The company suggests consumers drink green juices to promote good health. Green juices consist of a variety of pressed vegetables and fruits — making them a healthy alternative to other foods.
