Juice isn’t necessarily the first thing that pops into someone’s head when they think about how to cleanse an organ or fight off sickness. Because we are conditioned to think that a pill of this or a capsule of that will fix everything, we don’t look to herbal remedies as possible solutions. There are many natural things on this earth that can help us heal, we just have to look around.
#1: Turmeric Lemonade to Treat Depression
Prozac is the common drug for depression patients, but this juice is way better for you and just as effective. Since Prozac and other antidepressants can cause other health problems, why not go the natural route? Stir and enjoy this juice twice a day.
All you need is:
- 4 cups of distilled water
- 2 tablespoons turmeric powder
- 4 tablespoons grade B maple syrup
- juice of 1.5 lemons
#2: Lemon, Parsley, and Celery Juice for a Healthy Liver
You’re going to want to drink a cup of this about 3 times a day for 3 days. It’s important to avoid heavy meals during the 3 days you’re drinking this juice. Salads, nuts and seeds, whole grains, and legumes are great for helping the body naturally detox. The plus side is that you’ll lose a little weight too. You’ll need:
- Juice of 3 lemons
- 1 cup of fresh parsley
- 5 celery stalks
- 6 cups of water
Blend these ingredients together and enjoy 1 cup at a time. Refrigerate to keep fresh.
#3: Onion Juice for Ear Infections
If your child has an ear infection or you have swimmer’s ear after getting out of the water, onion juice is the best natural remedy for quick relief. The potent smell aside, this remedy is fast acting. Juice a half lemon and place a few drops in your ear. You don’t want to blend the onion because you don’t want pulp in your ear canal.
#4: Awesome Asthma Relief Juice
A healthy diet consisting of plant-based foods has been known to improve the health of people with asthma. You could even try our respiratory cleanse as an herbal remedy for helping a person’s asthma. You’ll need a juicer for this recipe. You’ll need the following:
- 2 green apples
- 6 celery stalks
- 1 bunch of spinach
- juice of 1 lemon
or…
- ¼ pineapple
- 1 fennel bulb
- 5 kale leaves

#5: Artery Cleanser
Keeping your arteries healthy can help you steer clear of conditions such as arteriosclerosis, high cholesterol, and other forms of heart disease. You are going to place the solid ingredients in a blender and stir it in with the water. Consume half a cup of this every two hours before a meal. You’ll need:
- 1 piece of ginger root
- 4 lemons
- 4 garlic cloves
- ½ gallon distilled water
#6: Golden Milk To Boost The Immune System
The immune system does a lot for you, so it’s only fair to return the favor. This “milk” has amazing health benefits, including antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. Mix all the ingredients together in a saucepan over a very low flame. Drink the concoction once it cools. You’ll need:
- 1 teaspoon of ginger powder
- ½ cup of turmeric powder
- ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper
- 1½ cups water
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- ¼ cup of natural honey
- ½ teaspoon of cardamom
- ½ cup of coconut milk
#7: Blood Pressure Lowering Juice
Watermelon is loaded with lycopene, an antioxidant compound that can help lower blood pressure levels. You can even blend the rind with the melon and lemon juice to get an excellent dose of chlorophyll, which is important for a healthy heart and immune system.
Blend the watermelon little by little and strain it through a mesh strainer to get the juice. Put several fresh sprigs of rosemary in the juice and refrigerate for 2 hours. To enjoy this, you’ll need:
- 8 cups watermelon, cubed
- 2 fresh sprigs of rosemary
