INGREDIENTS
2tbsp Whole Tahini (Creamed Sesame paste) - purchase from Holland and Barrett stores
1 pinch of Ground Cumin
1 clove of Garlic
Fresh Lemon Juice (half of one Lemon)
4tbsp Omega Oil Blend (purchase from most supermarkets)
1 can of Chickpeas (drained and rinse under cold water)
1tbsp of Jalepenos
Cold water (to combine the ingredients)

Debbie's Tip of the Day: The best juices for blood purification are lemon juice, beet juice, carrot juice, and the juices of all leafy greens. Leafy green juices are particularly important because they supply chlorophyll, an essential part of any blood purification therapy. Chlorophyll not only cleanses the blood of impurities, but also builds up the blood with important nutrients, promotes regularity, and inhibits cellular damage from radiation. This makes chlorophyll helpful in the treatment of many disorders. Wheatgrass, barley, and alfalfa juices are all rich in chlorophyll.
