The Chlorophyll Diet – The ‘Green Blood’ of Your Organism
All the plants that grow during the spring were God-created to help our organism get over the hardships of winter. The multitude of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that these plants contain will help our bodies clean and strengthen themselves.
One of the best nutrients found in greeneries is chlorophyll, also named the “vegetable blood.” In order for our body to benefit from the curing and detoxifying effects of this substance, you will need to undertake at least a 1-week long diet with green juices. The chlorophyll therapy is a certain and efficient way to detox your system, having the ability to flush out any harmful toxins from your body.
Plus, green veggies can offer your body all of the nutrients that it requires, fixing any vitamin deficiencies you may have.

Preparing the Chlorophyll Juice
In order to prepare the chlorophyll juice, all of the plants and vegetables need to be fresh and as green as possible. The intense color is a sign of a high chlorophyll concentration. You can use:
- Young spinach leaves
- Arugula leaves
- Green goods (parsley and celery)
- Green ramson leaves
- Leek, onion leaf or green garlic
- Fresh alfalfa root
- Dandelion green leaves
- Fresh nettle bases
- Offshoots of wheat, barley or green oat
The juice can be obtained in two ways:
- Maceration
You grab a handful of green plants (about 50 g) and finely chop them. You add them in a glass container and pour 100 ml of cold water over it. You seal the lid and let it macerate for 10 hours before pouring the content through a piece of gauze and strain it. The juice will be consumed right away, preferably in the morning before you have eaten anything.
- Mixed in the blender
The green plants, freshly washed, will be finely chopped and added in your blender together with 100 ml of water. You blend them for about 5 minutes and then you strain the solution, drinking the remaining juice.
You need to be wary of the fact the chlorophyll juice cannot be followed by someone suffering of thrombosis or who has undergone coronary bypass surgeries. The juices can’t be left to sit after the preparation either because they will oxidize right away. For this reason, it is recommended that you consume them immediately. Chlorophyll can color your urine and stool into green, along with your tongue, so do not worry if you notice odd colors like these.
