How can you achieve planetary beauty in one sip? Easy: by drinking every day fresh fruits and vegetables extracts, thanks to the ASTROLOGICAL JUICY DIET! Which astrological juice represents you? The arrival of juice extractors in the Italian market also brought a new way of feeding, reducing the absorption of fibres and extracting a large amount of nutraceuticals from vegetables, i.e. active principles and important enzymes from vegetables’ flesh and skin. They immediately reach the blood flow because they are poor of fibres (which would slow down the metabolism and the absorption of such enzymes) and serve as “medication”, with the advantage of producing a tastier juice without flesh pieces that children also enjoy. Indeed “living” extracts must be drunk 10-15 minutes before meals, breakfast included, or replace meals, and imply a 65% rate of nutraceutical absorption and 3-minute long digestion. This enables a better detoxification of your organism, reducing swelling, irritated colon, bowel fermentation, and difficult metabolism. Extracts are the best painless way to detoxify your organism, and to eliminate healthily all toxins and bowel inflammations. Moreover, chemical polluting remains of fruits and vegetables, i.e. pesticides are captured by fibres and the juice extract is the healthiest and purest part. However, the flesh of fruits and vegetables is made up of fibres, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats that keep together nutritional elements. Therefore, it is important to remember that the juice cannot replace fruits and vegetables, which are “nourishment” and must be eaten on a daily basis to integrate fibres. SLOW JUICERS are the best on the market and are third generation extractors. They are vertical and feature 40 spins, compared with previous ones with 80 spins. They extract juice slowly, with less heat and oxidation, as they integrate less air and do not damage the enzymatic part and organoleptic features of fruits and vegetables. Korean companies are the most known, powerful, and chosen extractor producers. You can also find Chinese devices that are cheaper but you can notice significant differences in the final extract and in the assembly and cleaning activities of the extractor parts. I have a Kitchen Aid extractor and I am very pleased, because it has a powerful direct current engine, which means that it can spin continuously for 50 minutes while you wash, clean, and cut vegetables, without getting stuck or melting. It has three filters with holes of different sizes, according to flesh texture, and its parts are easy to disassemble and clean. And I love efficient, handy, and quick appliances. Moreover, the machine features high quality materials that do not release toxins into the food. As I love natural colours, flavours, and combinations, I created recipes of pure juice with healthy properties for my body, inspired by the protective characteristics of planets in the universe! Here it is, the ASTROLOGICAL JUICY DIET. According to the day of the week you can vary its colour, benefit, planet, and vital energy.

Monday is the moon day, blessed by its silver light that favours germination and regulation. The SILVER LUNAR JUICE is made with fresh coconut, banana, Belgian endive, honey melon, yellow apple, lemon juice, celery, and almond milk. You can use New Zealand Manuka honey to add some sweet. It is extremely beneficial for the immune system, the metabolism, high cholesterol, and bones, thanks to potassium, minerals, group B vitamins, and choline. Tuesday is the day of Mars, a planet that brings courage and willpower to change. The RED MARTIAN JUICE is strengthening, energising, and revitalising because it has the colour of blood and fire and it is named after Mars, who is the god of war. This juice is made with strawberries, tomatoes, beetroot, red prunes, raspberries, and goji berries. It is rich in iron, minerals, vitamins A and E, lycopene, and polyphenols. It is a natural multivitamin extract that strengthens, invigorates, powers up blood, the cardio-circulatory and immune systems, and activates metabolism. Wednesday is the day linked to Mercury, which affects communication and mind openness, and fosters new inventions and quick intuitions. The ORANGE MERCURY JUICE has detoxifying properties, it is a powerful antioxidant and eliminates free radicals, improves the sight, and helps you put your ideas into practice. It improves memory, speech, fluency, movement, and mental clearness. This juice is made with apricots, mango, peaches, melon, carrots, pineapple, pumpkin, and ginger. It is rich in potassium, calcium, magnesium, minerals, vitamins A, C, and E, beta-carotene, and B group vitamins. Thursday is the day influenced by Jupiter, which brings strength, growth, renovation, optimism, wisdom, and wealth. The BLUE JUPITER JUICE is mineralising and protects the cardio-circulatory system, strengthens capillary structure and elasticity, even for the eyes. It has diuretic, purifying, healing, antioxidant, and anti-cancer properties. This juice is made with blueberries, blackberries, black grapes, beetroot, and red prunes. It is rich in anthocyanins, folic acid, phosphorus, selenium, magnesium, zinc, copper, minerals, vitamins A, C, E, K, and group B vitamins. Friday is connected with Venus, bringing love, passion, beauty, harmony, creativity, and inspiration. The GREEN VENUSIAN JUICE makes your skin beautiful, your thyroid healthy, your bones strong, and protects your lungs. It has anti-anaemia, anti-ageing, and diuretic properties. It restores the bacterial flora, regulates blood pressure, and prevents osteoporosis. It is made with fennel, cucumber, zucchini, celery, kiwi, asparagus, green apple, broccoli, and ginger. It is rich in potassium, calcium, phosphorus, minerals, vitamins A, C, and E, and B group vitamins. In order to make everything healthier and more efficient, I suggest adding some drops of mother tincture or glycolic extract of the herb that we need in that specific season or for a specific health condition. Astrology can also be useful when you decide whether to be on a diet, because it reveals what food is not appropriate on that day. Seek the advice of a nutrition and medical astrology expert, in order to understand which juice is most suitable to you or have fun playing with colours, planets, days of the week, and horoscope, with the astrological juicy diet. You’ll achieve your beauty in one sip. Because “eating is a need of the stomach and drinking is a need of the soul”!
