a bunch of fennel bulbs

Fennel is a wonderful addition to cold-pressed juice, particularly during the winter months. Its unique flavour and numerous health benefits make it a valuable ingredient to include in your juicing recipes.

One of the great advantages of using fennel in juice is that it has a mild and pleasant flavour that doesn't overpower the other ingredients. This allows it to blend seamlessly with both vegetable and fruit juices, adding a refreshing and slightly sweet taste to the mix.

Health Benefits

Fennel

Fennel is considered both a vegetable and a herb depending on which part of the plant you are using. The bulb is used as a vegetable and the green fronds are used as a herb.

It is known to be highly beneficial for sinus congestion, bronchitis, anaemia, hypertension, macular degeneration, constipation, bloating, diarrhea, and irritable bowel syndrome.

Fennel is excellent for indigestion and is commonly used as a natural antacid in order to help reduce acidity and inflammation in the digestive tract.

Green Apple

Green apples have it all in the world of juicing. They have a thick skin which makes them crispier and super easy to juice in a cold press juicer. They have a tangy, sour taste which pairs well with green vegetables.

All apples have a perfect 5-pointed star when cut across the middle. This star represents a human being standing with arms outstretched in the shape of a star. The old saying an apple a day keeps the doctor away is an ancient truth. Apples have been designed by mother nature as an everyday health-preserving, disease-fighting food.

Green apples are a better source of vitamin A, B, C, E and K than red apples. Also, green apples contain more Iron, Potassium, and Protein than red apples.
