Pineapple and Spinach Juice Experiment

Join me today to prepare some delicious Pineapple & Spinach juice.  I chose this combination because Pineapple is high in Vitamin C which helps me combat any airborne illness and therefore, boost’s my immune system. Spinach is high in Vitamin A which is involved in immune function, vision, reproduction, and cellular communication. Vitamin A also supports cell growth and differentiation, playing a critical role in the normal formation and maintenance of the heart, lungs, kidneys, and other organs. bullet will blend all your fruits and veggies to a nice smooth texture. I hope you enjoy the video and try this amazing mix at home!!!
