It has been a fun and busy event calendar for Genie over the last two weeks! Check out all the fun events we got to juice up!

Topshop

Ivy Park launched in Topshop, Central last week amongst a buzz of lovely Topshop staff, press, bloggers, key influencers and models. The Topshop X Beyonce collaboration activewear flew off the shelves while DJ Eve Special had everybody happily bopping while they were shopping! The idea behind the collection is that the pieces are made of high performance technical and comfortable material but the pieces also looks cool enough you can rock up to meet your buddies for a coffee or juice after your workout!

SPRING HAS SPRUNG

organised

Who dosen’t love a good spring clear out whether it is clearing out your handbag to clearing out your work inbox or a doing a big wardrobe hull. You get so much satisfaction getting rid of old crap, you feel more organized and clear headed tackling the next seasons list of tasks!

landing-biggest-range1

Cleansing your body has a similar effect it helps your body to focus, as cleansing gives your digestive system and other detoxifying organs a break. Chewing, eating and digesting food uses a huge amount of energy. This boost of energy to your body’s natural detoxification process lessens the load on the liver, allows for better absorption through the gut wall and heals cells.

Our bodies are amazing and can naturally detox, heal and regenerate cells all by itself. However the environment we live in and the lifestyle we lead today we are exposed to more and more toxins in our air, water and food. Back in the day ‘an apple a day would keep the doctor away’ today it is more like ‘several apples a day should keep the doctors away’! During a juice cleanse you’re maximizing your bodies detoxifying system. A three-day Spring cleanse is a fantastic way to prepare your body for the change of seasons.

Detox

Like all things in life there is no such thing as a quick-fix, we recommend looking at doing a cleanse as a way to kick start adding positive changes and habits to your diet daily. Incorporating more raw fruit and vegetable to your diet will result in long-term benefits. There are so many benefits from cleansing with large amounts of fruit and vegetables – bright eyes, clear skin, shinier hair, stronger nails, weight loss, feeling lighter, flat stomach, clear mind, energized and feeling generally better!

learn-fruit-n-veg

Recently we have had understandable concerns about questions on fibre, protein and sugars relating to juices, let us explain!

FIBRE

There are two main categories of dietary fibre, insoluble fibre and soluble fibre. While juicing does remove insoluble fibre the soluble fibre remains, examples would be pectin from the apple skins. It slows the absorption of any natural sugars in the bloodstream and avoids any spikes.

PROTEIN

Leafy greens like spinach and kale are good sources of protein. Because it takes a significant amount of green vegetable to make one serving of juice, green juices are a good source of plant protein . Amino acids are the building blocks of protein which can be found in a variety of fruit, vegetables, legumes, seeds and grains. A balanced diet of these can make up the recommended 6.5% protein needed by humans daily.

SUGAR

There have been concerns about the high sugar content in juices. This reputation has come from nasty sweetened and pasteurized juices you see in supermarkets or 711 that last for weeks or months. Our juices are cold pressed, raw, no added sugars, not heat treated and our juices only last 2-3 days. Yes some fruit have a higher natural sugar content than others but they are also provide vitamins, minerals and nutrients essential for a healthy body and mind. The majority of our juices are also mixed with vegetables and contain insoluble fibre so to avoid any sugar spikes in the bloodstream providing more balance.

At Genie we also always include food supplements chia seed and pysllium husks in our online cleanses as they contain added fibre and protein while cleansing!

Please feel free to call into our store any time to ask our staff about arranging your Spring Cleanse this month!

GENIE WATER BOTTLE

You can top up in the morning, pop it in your bag and gulp away at your desk, run around all day or dance all night! $100 available at ifc mall and Hollywood Rd, ‘Teeny Genie” stores.
Cameron-Diaz-1
Check out everyone’s favourite celeb girl crush Cameron Diaz and her helpful tip on chugging back the good stuff, from her ‘The Body Book’ :
‘Every night before I go to sleep, I fill up a big glass bottle with water and put it on my bathroom counter. First thing in the morning, right after I brush my teeth, I drink it. Because I know that during the night, while I am sleeping, all of that breathing in and out exhales a lot of moisture from my lungs. Imagine how much water you can lose during eight hours of breathing! Because we can’t replenish it while we are sleeping, it’s important to rehydrate once we wake. Once I drink the water in the bottle by my sink, I feel it immediately. I go from being a wilted plant to one that has just been rejuvenated by the rain.’
Alkaline Lemon and plain
LEMON AND PURE ALKALINE WATER

Genie’s alkaline water has a PH of 9.5 and is available with lemon essential oil or good old fashioned plain. Alkaline water will help neutralise acid in the bloodstream, leading to increased oxygen levels and faster hydration – hanging hungover heads take note! If your body is too acidic due to processed foods, medication, stress, pollution etc to compensate your body has to borrow minerals from your bones, teeth and organs to neutralize the excess acidity. Therefore it is important for the body to maintain a pH balance.

elle_macpherson_redonline__square

‘The Body’ Elle Macpherson talked about adding alkaline based food and drinks to her diet in a recent magazine article:
“An acidic body is out of balance. Today’s diet of processed food, sugar, alcohol, too much red meat, dairy and coffee – especially for me – along with stress and lack of sleep can affect the way the body functions. My diet was okay but I was busy, eating on the run and sleeping four hours a night. I was feeling tired and toxic and my solution was to take a plethora of synthetic vitamins. After I made lifestyle changes and started to become more alkaline, I noticed benefits right across the board. I felt lighter, lost stubborn weight around my middle and had better digestion and no IBS. It also started to show on the outside – they call it the ‘alkaline glow’. My skin felt moisturised when I’ve always had dry skin. My hairdresser commented that my hair was strong and was growing quickly.”

Drink up everyone!!!!

Too cute! Mini Christmas popcorn flavours have arrived just in time to add to your Christmas Stocking Filler list or even to enjoy at the cinema. We have three new Christmas flavours in store and these are popped exclusively for us by the Hong Kong born and bred team at Sote.

THE SPICE
THE MERRIMENT
Gingerbell Mini Popcorn

Not only do they taste of all things Christmas the organic virgin coconut oil, non-GMO whole-grain kernels popcorn have heaps of health benefits. Don’t get duped at the cinema, those varieties are laden with processed butter and salt are not doing you any favours.

Digestion: Popcorn, or specifically corn, is a whole grain! Digestive systems rejoice! Popcorn contains high levels of fibre which as we all know, helps keeping everything moving. And as we constantly say – happy gut = happy body!

Cholestrol: The high fibre will also help keep cholesterol levels down, ask your grandparents they are usually keen cholestrol watchers . Whole grains contain the type of fibre which can strip off excess cholesterol from the walls of blood vessels and arteries, thereby reducing your overall cholesterol levels, and lowering your chances of dangerous cardiovascular conditions like atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and strokes.

So they are the perfect healthy and satisfying snacks to enjoy with the fam or the house mates while watching all your favourite Christmas movies, Love Actually, It’s A Wonderful Life, Elf, The Night Before Christmas, Home Alone…….! Available in store for a limited time, $30 pack.
