    Hi Sara I am on my 7th day of green juice fast for overall health and hopefully improve my psoriasis. Your site is unbelievable and fills the gap between traditional, naturopathic, eastern medicine which we all need so much. There is so much here but I am starting with the the green juice cleanse and really enjoying the journey especially when you explain what to expect. I was thinking about adding nigella seed black oil to my juices daily and beyond when I’m done and wanted to see what you thought.
