Info Bit-Parsley

I had a bunch of parsley left over from my weekend produce buy. Almost 20 bunches to be exact! I have been using at least a bunch at a time for my green juice. Being that I buy intuitively most of the time and can never remember specific benefits attached to certain foods I was happy to see this info come from Victoria Boutentko's email newsletter.

Parsley contains three times as much vitamin C as oranges, twice as much iron as spinach, is rich in vitamin A and contains folate, potassium and calcium. What's more, parsley is also recognized for its cancer-fighting potential.

Wow, those little curly bundles pack a punch!
Juice Up!

I just did the same thing with parsley. I found that the woman my daughter buys fresh dill from (for my banana dill smoothies)had put a big bunch of parsley in there. I juiced it with an apple. I felt such a bounce from it I googled it and was pleasantly surprised at its many benefits.

Blessings!
