7 Juice Recipes for Treating Anemia

You may not know it but you may already be suffering from anemia. So, what is this condition all about and why can juices help alleviate it?

Anemia is considered as a medical condition wherein red blood cells, when counted, appear less than normal. The standard hemoglobin levels vary in men and women. Signs like getting tired easily, paleness, palpitations, shortness of breath and even hair loss are just among the many symptoms you might encounter if your red blood cells fall way beyond the normal level.

Foods rich in iron and Vitamin B12 can ease you up if you have this medical condition and juicing may also prove beneficial besides seeking medical attention.

Foods to include and avoid in your diet to help combat anemia

YES!

  • Fish/Shellfish
  • ​Nuts/seeds
  • Green leafy vegetables

NO!

  • Black or Green Tea
  • ​Red Wine
  • Gluten-rich foods

Below I have compiled 7 specific juice recipes for anemia sufferers. The ingredients used in each of these juices should help those that are currently battling with the issue.

7 Juices to Help Treat Anemia

1. Banana Almond Soymilk Smoothie

Soymilk is so far the best option to use for this particular smoothie most especially to people who are lactose-intolerant or not even a fan of milk. Throw in bananas and almonds to B-complex- rich soymilk and what you get is an instant perk up!

Banana Almond Soymilk Smoothie

Ingredients:

  • 3 bananas
  • 1 1/2 cups soy milk
  • 2 tsp. finely chopped raw almonds
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. agave syrup

Method:

Peel and slice bananas. Mix with ½ of the soy milk and blend.

Add the remaining soy milk, almonds + agave syrup and blend for 15 seconds more.

Parlsey + lemon juice is a fantastic way to stay fit. Just be sure you drink this iron-rich blend 30 mins before eating your next meal!

Parsley Juice

Ingredients:
