Healing Recipes: Cancer - Carrot, Ginger, Beet Juice, Source: http://avocadopesto.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/beet-juice-5-1-of-1.jpgCancer can affect people of any age, and it manifests in a variety of forms. Proper nutrition plays a substantial role in combating this illness. Foods such as sugar have been shown to feed cancer cells, while other foods are effective in halting the progression of their growth. Cannabis has, likewise, proven to have many healing benefits for those battling cancer. This recipe combines medicinal cannabis and foods recommended for combating cancer to create a powerful health blend. Carrot, ginger and beet combine with apple and orange to create a delicious juice. If you are a beginner make sure to read this beginners guide to juicing.

Serves 1-2

INGREDIENTS:

  • 5 small carrots (tops removed)
  • 1 medium beet (quartered)
  • 1 granny smith apple (quartered)
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 1 orange (unpeeled)
  • 1 lemon (unpeeled)
  • 1/2″ fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cannabis-infused alcohol-based tincture

PREPARATION: 

To begin, thoroughly wash the carrots, beet and green apple.

Next, chop the tops off of the carrots, and quarter both the beets and apple (making sure to discard any seeds or core bits from the apple in the process).

Then, place the beet chunks into a juicer and turn the juicer on high-power.

Push the beets through the juicer and continue to add in the apple chunks, followed up by the carrots.

Then, add in the clove of garlic, and 1/2″ of fresh ginger, juicing them as well.

Finally, add in both the lemon and orange, and juice both of these fruits in their entirety.

Pour the fresh juice out of the collection tank and into a mason jar or glass.

Add 1 tablespoon of cannabis-infused alcohol-based tincture to the glass of juice, grab a spoon, and mix.

Serve immediately as is, or cold over ice.

Juice may also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, however, the sooner it is drunk after making it, the more delicious it will be, as separation is likely to occur.

Enjoy!

Cassidy Wolfe began cooking at the tender age of 5, and quickly developed a love of food which grew as she did. Self-studied and intensely curious, she began experimenting with different methods of cooking and seemingly complicated recipes. Though she had been medicating with cannabis for a while beforehand, it wasn't until she reached college age that she decided to combine her love of cooking with her passion for medicinal cannabis. She realized that cannabis infused food can provide relief for various types of illnesses/conditions without any of the harmful side-effects of traditional medications. Recent scientific backings in the MMJ world, along with her passion and love for food, drove her to share her knowledge and recipes with the cannabis community.
