# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The cabbage and kale combo works like a gentle internal scrub, leaving you feeling lighter without harsh cleanses
  • Fresh ginger adds just enough warmth and zing to make this feel like a treat instead of medicine
02 -
  • Fresh juice oxidizes quickly, so drink it right away or store in an airtight container for no more than 24 hours
  • If you're new to green juice, start with less ginger and work your way up to the full amount
03 -
  • Feed leafy greens through the juicer first, then harder vegetables, to help push everything through
  • If the taste is too intense, try adding half a ripe pear for natural sweetness
