Carrot –Improves liver function and stimulates the elimination of wastes. Also eliminates putrefactive bacteria in intestines that cause poor assimilation
Celery – Calms and aggravated liver, improves digestion, purifies the blood, and clears digestive fermentation. Combining celery and lemon has been used in the past as a remedy for colds and headaches
Beet – purifies the blood, aids the liver, moistens the intestines, and helps stop constipation
Lemon – Destroys putrefactive bacteria in both the intestines and mouth, aids in digestion, cleanses the blood
