Cucumber Cooler

I read once that cucumber can help with the digestion of gluten, but I have never been able to back this up with any research. I do think it makes sense that it would have a cooling affect on an irritated digestive system just like it does when applied directly to sunburnt skin! This juice is one I make when I have accidentally eaten some gluten or when my stomach is particularly irritated.

Ingredients

  • 2 x lebanese cucumbers (if you use other kinds, remove the skin)
  • 1 x apple
  • 1 x pear
  • 25ml lime juice

Method

  1. Add all ingredients to juicer
  2. Serve in a glass with ice
  3. Finely grate some lime zest over the top
