The Juice: Clear Out Cancer

1 Head Bok Choy
2 Romaine Lettuce Leaves
1 Lime
1 Lemongrass Stalk
3″ Thumb of Ginger
Directions

Run all ingredients through your juicer and enjoy!!!
The Details:
Bok choy is a bounty of potential anti-cancer properties. As a cruciferous vegetable, it’s full of sulfur-containing compounds (glucosinolates and isothiocyanates) which are hypothesized to be the source of its cancer-fighting capabilities.
The anti-inflammatory properties of lettuce may help reduce the risk of cancer by scavaging free radicals that cause oxidative stress. These free radicals damage cellular components, such as cell membranes, proteins, and DNA, which can trigger cancer development and propagation.
Lemongrass contains quercetin, a flavanoid with both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which may inhibit cancer cell growth. It also is a source of citral (found in limes, too), which is thought to be a cancer cell cytotoxin.
The polyphenols in apples, particularly the skin (which is why we don’t peel them), are believed to counter inflammation and oxidation stress.
Ginger contains high amounts of the phenolic compound gingerol, thought to be a powerful protector against gastrointestinal cancers (colon, in particular).
