Green leafy vegetables, especially kale, are crucial for good health. Kale is great for promoting cardiovascular health and is high in fiber, antioxidants, calcium and many other vitamins.
Kids might not like the raw, steamed or sautéed version of this superfood, but they’ll love it when it’s joined with the tasty nutritional goodness of apples, pineapples and lemons.

1 Handful of Kale
2 Granny Smith Apples
1 Pineapple Spear
¼ Lemon
Orange Juice Supreme
This combo is a great alternative to the traditional fresh squeezed OJ. It’s loaded with fiber, potassium and vitamin C and is great for alkalizing the body. This powerhouse juice goes far beyond being a simple pancake companion.

Incorporating juices into your healthy lifestyle is an awesome way to make sure everyone is getting what they need to embrace the vitality of life. My kids love starting their day off with a cup of Green Apple Goodness (lovingly named by my six year old) and the Tropical Lemonade is always great for an afternoon snack.
As soon as they hear the mellow hum of the juicer, they literally come running and stand beside me with their cups.
And occasionally, I’ll make a few more ounces so that we can pour it into molds, pop it in the freezer and enjoy popsicles later on. This juicing thing for kids is a win-win situation!
There’s nothing that brings more joy to the soul than seeing healthy and happy kids.
