[My] Pocket Camera

Here are fresh spring ramps along with a cup of chaga mushroom tea — both procured from Burlington's beautiful neighboring town of Shelburne, VT. Feel inspired to take a journey of your own and explore the abundant outdoors of Vermont! Concord grapes, Sumac Berries and Wild Apples later this summer! Bon appetite! And a very happy earth day! We are so grateful to be here!

In northern Vermont we have all manner of extraordinary opportunities to forage for assorted wild edibles! Think June Berries and Daylilies, Dandelion Roots, Leaves and Buds, Plantain, Burdock, Chanterelle Mushrooms and more!!

The Liver & Your Health

What do you know about the liver? In Chinese Medicine, spring is the time to ENLIVEN and PURIFY this very vital organ. This is your body's major fat burner! When the liver is impaired or not working optimally, it will DISTRACT intensely from any work you're trying to accomplish [physical, emotional, professional, or otherwise]. A CLEAN Liver can also function as a natural antihistamine! Anyone prone to allergies in the spring or alll the time? It may be time to do a liver cleanse.
As your second largest organ it is responsible for mitigating a lot of information to the rest of your body and processing wastes before they enter the small intestine. It has a lot of work to do! Think of it as a FILTER. All filters need to be cleaned — especially the ones we carry inside. A clean liver can also brighten your skin tone as you increase your ability to absorb nutrients! So nibble on those dandelion greens, and stock up on liver purifying life ingredients. I also recommend taking a "vacation" from the things that may lead to its continued duress. Allow it to heal and repair and feel the amazing energy to follow!! All organic juice is healing and nurturing to the liver. Create a commitment to drink more water and experiment with different raw juices to help you on your journey! Happy spring and spring cleaning!! Excited to see how you feel as a result of making this changes!
IDEA: Try a 3 Day Juice Cleanse to kick things off! Or view our other 1 Day + options. The greens + variety of enzymes + turmeric in this particular cleanse will fill your body with the light and love that you seek. A total game changer! I love this juice cleanse! And I loved the way it made me feel!! I still feel the positive effects working even a full 2 weeks later :)

Enzymes!
[My] Pocket Camera

Organic juice is delicious, but its also one of the most powerful ways we can introduce ENZYMES to our system. Enzymes come in many forms, all with specific digestive "targets": There is Amylase, Protease, Bromelain, Lipase, Papain, and more! Some are responsible for digesting proteins, others are able to aid with digesting fats or carbohydrates. The key word here is DIVERSITY! One of the best things we can do for ourselves everyday is support our body with assorted enzymes. The phrase encouraging us to eat [and drink!] the rainbow is authentically referring to the rainbow of vitamins and minerals they contain, but even MORE important are the enzymes present that help this nutrition become available to your trillions of cells.
However!! We all have the power to change. If you can simply enjoy more water daily [beginning right at the beginning!] with warm water and lemon/lime, along with other ALKALINE food sources, you are going to both DEEPEN your body's ability to hydrate and then provide support in the form of enzymes, which are essential to digestion and therefore your body's ability to absorb the maximum amount of nutrients [leading to greater satisfaction — even with small meals!].
So develop a morning ritual! Prioritize water, green tea, and raw juice! Set the stage for a beautiful and positively energized day [and future!] I personally love fresh grapefruit and our trio of Costa Rican Pineapple juices:
- Pineapple Wheatgrass
- Pineapple Kale [made with dark leafy lacinato kale, otherwise known as dinosaur kale :)]
- And my all time favorite and total joy: Pineapple Lemon!
Following an organic raw juice of your choice, you will soon attract other healthy cravings and edible inspiration! Let these elements inspire you on a cellular level and feel the VERY REAL difference it can make!
Have a great Tuesday!! And happy wellbeing!
TOMGIRL Greens

TOMGIRL Greens: our signature green juice! It is composed of an array of intensely leafy greens that make up 47% of this pint. It also has apple, which we source locally from Champlain Orchards and fresh lemons. Lemon juice alone is one of the most purifying juices we can drink. Although acidic in taste, it is a highly alkalizing fruit that acts as an antacid.
Parsley is an important lymph node clarifier that helps regulate the function of the thyroid and adrenal glands. Celery is high in B vitamins and has a natural diuretic effect, aiding in ridding our system of toxins. It is simply a powerhouse of life giving nutrition as well as an effective tonic for anxiety, stress, insomnia and headaches. The equally intense content of chlorophyll and the carotenoid lutein are extracted from the BIG blend of leafy greens we press: collards, kale, romaine, baby spinach, and red chard. We accent this drink with a kick of Hawaiian ginger to round out all the amazing flavors. What a beautiful juice to enjoy anytime of the day!
