Juicing recipes: A healthy way to drink to St. Paddy

I have a big glass of juice every night as part of my anti-cancer regimen.  I use an Omega juicer, which works quite well.  So, when I got the recipes below from Omega, I thought I would share them with you.  I would especially recommend the ones with kale, bok choy, or broccoli.  These are cruciferous vegetables that are especially good cancer fighters. 

Omega's PR folks presented these as healthy ways to celebrate St. Pat's day—a good plan, especially if it means cutting out the alcohol, which is linked to cancer risk. Interestingly, though, I never celebrate the day named for my namesake.   

So let's drink to our health!
