A simple routine is to start each day with a shot of wheatgrass or barley grass juice powder, spirulina, chlorella, or AFA algae, or a ready-made green mix diluted in water.
When you wake up, you can first drink a glass of water with lemon or lime. Then you can take your "shot".
2. Make green smoothies
Making a green smoothie is one of the easiest ways to get extra chlorophyll and at the same time energy for breakfast, lunch, or as a snack.
Here is a basic recipe that provides a good base and is perfect to combine with other ingredients:
- A handful of any fruit
- A handful of any berries
- 2 handfuls of any green leaves
- Water
Experiment with different combinations until you find your favorites.
You can replace green leaves with any chlorophyll-rich supplement if you want. Of course, you can also add, for example, protein powder or chia seeds if you want a more filling smoothie.
Avocado is also a great way to make a more substantial smoothie that also tastes creamy and wonderful.
3. Make dressing with algae
Algae are undoubtedly one of the healthiest ingredients you can use to make a really tasty dressing for your salad.
Here is a basic recipe that can be varied to taste.
- 100 ml olive oil
- 50 ml lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
- 1-2 tsp chlorella, AFA algae, or spirulina
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1-2 tbsp fresh or dried herbs such as basil or coriander
- Salt and pepper to taste
For extra creamy dressing, add:
- 100 ml water
- 1/2 avocado or 100 ml hemp seeds
Blend all ingredients in a blender. Pour over your salad and enjoy!
4. Blend your salad
Does it sometimes feel overwhelming when you have to eat a delicious but huge salad?
Try blending it into a green dip or salsa. A great way to get in more green leaves without having to chew all afternoon.
Italian salsa
- 1 bag of arugula
- 100 ml walnuts or pine nuts
- 50 ml olive oil
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
Mexican salsa
- 2 large tomatoes
- 1 bag of fresh spinach
- 1 pot of fresh coriander (or about 40g frozen)
- 1 small red onion or 1 garlic clove
- Juice from half a lemon
- 1/2 fresh chili pepper of any kind
- Herb salt to taste
Blend all ingredients in a food processor. Serve in a small bowl and enjoy with any dinner or lunch.
5. Fresh-pressed vegetable juice
Don’t forget that one of the best sources of vitamins, antioxidants, and chlorophyll is fresh-pressed vegetable juice.
Try to make your own juices as often as you can. Good juice ingredients include cucumber, celery, spinach, kale, green pea shoots or other sprouts, fennel, and broccoli. Let your imagination flow!
You can find effective and good juicers here. If you don’t have a juicer, you can blend in a regular blender; it will be more of a smoothie than juice, but the most important thing is that we get our vegetables.
