We've all heard that we should be drinking lots of water and eating plenty of fruits and vegetables for our health, but it can be hard to know exactly how much to eat and drink every day. The answer may surprise you! All you need to do to detoxify your body and get healthy skin from the inside out is to make sure that every day you drink at least 2 cups of carrot juice with 1/2 cup of orange juice as your detoxifier drink.
Why this recipe works
Carrots contain fibre, vitamins and
minerals that help detoxify your body and boost skin health. Carrot juice is
also rich in beta-carotene, which is an antioxidant that can fight free
radicals. This helps keep your immune system strong and may even slow down
signs of ageing! It's high in vitamin A and provides a ton of nutrients for your
overall well-being, so it's no wonder why we love juicing our carrots! Orange
juice contains antioxidants called flavonoids (including hesperidin) that have
been shown to reduce inflammation, protect against heart disease and cancer, as
well as promote healthy blood flow. It's also loaded with vitamin C which
supports collagen production to keep your skin smooth and youthful looking.
These two ingredients combined make one delicious drink to start your day!
How to make carrot and orange juice

refreshing way to detoxify your body naturally, try blending up some carrot and
orange juice. The taste of carrot juice can be a little hard to get used to,
but it's great if you want a simple method of boosting your health while also
easing digestion. Carrot juice is loaded with vitamin A, which helps boost skin
elasticity and promote healthy eyesight. Vitamin C in oranges is a powerful
antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals in your body—and will even help
prevent sunburns! These two ingredients blended make an incredibly
tasty beverage that will improve your overall health as well as give you
glowing skin! Here's how to make it

Fun facts about carrots
Rich in essential nutrients, carrots contain
a high concentration of vitamin A, an antioxidant that boosts immunity and
helps keep skin healthy. Carrots are also abundant in beta-carotene, a
precursor to vitamin A; lycopene, which promotes cardiovascular health; and
zeaxanthin, which protects against age-related macular degeneration. One cup of
raw carrot has about 33 calories. The sweet vegetable contains no fat or
cholesterol but does provide 2 grams of fibre.
In addition to being rich in beta-carotene,
orange juice offers several other nutritional benefits, including folate (folic
acid), vitamin C, potassium, and calcium. Folate plays a role in DNA synthesis
and repair as well as helping red blood cells mature properly. Vitamin C helps
boost immune function, while potassium maintains normal blood pressure levels.
Best time to drink the drink
If you're not juicing yourself, try
squeezing in a morning glass before your breakfast or mid-morning snack to
clear away any unwanted toxins from last night's dinner; if you are juicing it
at home, including carrot and orange juice in your mix for optimum cleansing
effects. Remember to drink your juice immediately after squeezing to avoid
losing out on all of its benefits! A high-quality juicer is key here if you
want that fresh-squeezed taste! Also, don't forget to add some flaxseed oil to
help with nutrient absorption. Just one tablespoon of flaxseed oil can increase
your body's ability to absorb fat-soluble nutrients by up to three times!
Best days of the week to do it
Any day you feel like a boost of energy. It
might also be best to do it on an empty stomach as a bonus for detoxing.
If you're looking to get rid of stubborn water weight, steer clear of fruits
and stick with veggies that can hydrate your body instead. However, if you're looking
for some extra fuel to power through your day or want a light snack before
hitting up a workout class, fruit is fine too. Just make sure they're fresh and
in-season when possible.
Thank you, and have a refreshing week.
