I was travelling backwards and forwards to Washington DC a few years ago. That’s probably not considered a long haul flight by many, but it was plenty long enough for me.

To begin with, within days of landing I’d have some kind of respiratory system bug – a cough, a cold, a sore throat – you know the type of thing.

A friend tipped me off about this juicer recipe which I drank before the flight and during the flight. Now, it may well have been coincidence or even a psychosomatic response, but I can tell you that never again did I go down with a bug after flying!

Try it and see for yourself.

Large pineapple (peeled and with the tufty leaves removed)
6 Kiwi fruit

All processed through the juicer and stored in an air tight container until ready to drink. Do not keep for more than one day before drinking.

NB Do be careful with this juice as some people are allergic to Pineapples and Kiwi fruits! If that’s the case substitute with Papaya and Oranges.

Let’s start the recipes with a quick hangover cure!

I know I am extolling the health benefits of juicing and as an avid juicer and health nut I of course never imbibe too much wine (well it is grape juice after all….)

Anyway, experience has unfortunately shown me that this is an ideal pick-me-up for the morning after the night before.

1 Citrus fruit of your choice. Medium Sized. Peeled
1/2 red sweet pepper (yellow or orange would do but avoid green peppers for this recipe)
1/2 Beetroot. Uncooked and unpickled.

• Process the fruit and vegetables in your juicer.

• Dilute according to your taste preferences if required

Makes one large portion.
