Goji Berry Curcumin Juice Recipe – The Brain Body Energizer! A Vegan Recipe

I am going to show you how to make my goji-berry curcumin drink. I call it my brain body energizer. It consists of 1/4 cup of goji berries, 1 capsule of curcumin, 2 tablespoons of cocunut milk, and 1 cup of alkaline water.

I use goji berries because they are an excellent antioxidant and alkalizer of the body. Studies have shown than a acidic body is a great environment for promoting and sustaining disease. The fluids in the body, the blood, should be at a pH level of 7.4, and as Dr. Vega showed in his goji berry video, goji berries raise the pH level in the body by fighting acidity.

Goji berries also help oxygenate the body and improve blood circulation. This is important because the minerals and oxygen in the blood become more readily available to the organs in the body, which helps to energize the body.

I use curcumin as a brain energizer. Curcumin has been shown to be one of the few substances that can bypass the brain blood barrier. This is important because studies have shown that curcumin can dissolve proteins in the brain that cause Alzheimer’s disease.

Curcumin is not easily absorbed into the bloodstream. Dissolving it in a fat such as coconut milk or oil allows it to be absorbed into the bloodstream. Coconut milk is a very good fat and it contains lauric acid. Lauric acid is an antiviral and antibacterial substance. The only other place lauric acid is found is in mother’s breast milk and it helps babies fight off disease and infection.

I also use 1 cup of alkaline water. Studies have shown that alkaline water with a pH above 8.5 also helps to dissolve the curcumin so it can be easily absorbed into the blood stream, plus I just love getting my body more alkaline. Now lets watch the video…
