It can be so easy to get sick in Miami, especially with this bi-polar weather; that is cold one second and warm the next. Luckily for Gables students, here are some quick juicing recipes that can rid you of the dreading experience of a cold. So avoid the hassles  and  boost your immune system the healthy way with a juicing detox!

First things first, these recipes are for immune system boosts, NOT dieting purposes. Detoxification for weight loss can actually be dangerous and detrimental to the teenage body, especially since many detox plans require the lack of eating. So I’ll emphasis again that these recipes are not for dieting purposes!
