Green tea has a lot of health benefits and you can find this amazing tonic in a variety of different forms from bottled sugary teas, bottles healthy teas, tea bag, loose leaf tea, and the crushed powdered from known as matcha in Japan. Having said all this, colon cleansing is becoming widely known for its own health benefits and the word is getting out about how having a properly functioning digestive system supplemented by regular colon cleansing is helping to keep people living longer, and living better. So it stands to reason that combining these two methods of improving ones health can only help to boost both methods effectiveness in helping to cleanse the body and strengthen its overall function, and a green tea colon cleanse routine is just the method to get us there.
The green tea colon cleanse routine is fairly simple, when you do your normal juicing with fresh organic produce, you also should either brew yourself some fresh green tea, or consume high quality bottled green tea like ito en’s oi ocha which has no artificial ingredients or sweeteners, just vitamin C to preserve the antioxidants and flavor. Green tea’s natural catechins help boost the immune system and also help along with naturally occurring and safe levels of caffeine help boost your overall metabolism, so when this is combined with fresh veggie juice, the effect can be extremely powerful. Make sure whatever produce you use to juice is washed using a quality veggie wash, and make sure your produce is either locally grown or organic so you’re not juicing bas chemicals and pesticides.
Green tea is not just healthy as a tonic, tincture, or tea, but it can also be used as an additional and vital ingredient to a fruit smoothie or green smoothie. You might be wondering how this can be, because your obviously not going to blend tea leaves, and tea is a liquid obviously so that wouldn’t work. What I suggest you do is buy the form of green tea used in Japanese tea ceremonies for centuries called “matcha”, this is essentially the tea leaf ground up by hand into a fine powdery or granular form, this allows for the WHOLE leaf to be consumed and as such you get the additional high chlorophyll content that is lost when tea is brewed and you just get the extracts, this particular form of the green tea colon cleanse routine is great for those who are not comfortable brewing their own tea and enjoy smoothies.
