Going Green Goddess in Palm Beach

 In my never ending attempt in being healthier, happier and slimmer, I am finally drinking the “juice”.  My nutritionist Jacqui Justice strongly suggested I drink a green juice everyday.   You can make it yourself , but I like it when someone else makes it for me.   So I hop  on my green bike, and ride along the Lake Trail and stop at  The Bio-Age Md for my daily fix.
