damaged when it is exposed to the air. Drink juice fresh.

Use available ingredients

Seasonal vegetables and fruits are more nutritious and better in taste. Outer leaves
of cabbage or leaves of celery which, may not be often used for cooking, are also
highly nutritious and may be utilized for making juice.
