While whole foods are always ideal, this cruciferous juice makes for a tasty nutrient infusion with only a few calories that you can use to boost your vitamin and mineral intake quickly.
The carrots will provide you with plenty of vitamin A and potassium, along with a burst of sweetness. At the same time, broccoli brings vitamins A, B5, B6, C and K along with choline, folate and potassium.
The cauliflower adds even more choline, potassium and vitamins B5, B6 and C, while the kale and watercress provide calcium, manganese and vitamins A, C and K.
You can mix and match the vegetables to suit your tastes and preferences, ideally from the top of Your Optimal Food List in Nutrient Optimiser.
