"the juice"

I found inspiration on a blog of a man who lost his wife to cancer. He credits this juice to extending her life by 6 months. During a time when all she could stomach was ice cream and cold desserts, he bought a juicer and her body was able to handle and benefit from this juice.

I changed his recipe a bit based on what I had available, but you can see his original post here:

Note: I never add the kale first.
Note 2: I tried to add blue berries, but they didn't seem to add any juice.

A self-appointed cabal of the Organic Elite, spearheaded by Whole Foods Market, Organic Valley, and Stonyfield Farm, has decided it's time to surrender to Monsanto. Top executives from these companies have publicly admitted that they no longer oppose the mass commercialization of GE crops, such as Monsanto's controversial Roundup Ready alfalfa, and are prepared to sit down and cut a deal for "coexistence" with Monsanto and USDA biotech cheerleader Tom Vilsack.
