Daily before each meal
4-6 ounces of Green Juice. And, it goes without saying, you need to drink at least one full glass of water with each meal. Be sure to drink water as needed throughout the day, too, especially if you’re incorporating exercise (click here to view our Challenge Workout Schedule) into your 21-Day Challenge.
