Immune Boosting Juice

I am obsessed with this juicy. It feels like liquid power being sent to my immune system. I use to be intimidated by juicing and have a lot of judgments around it. For instance, I used to think juicing was just a trendy thing. But in the last few years, I have learned to really love juicing and see it as another way to live into my value of health and send more nutrients to my body. It feels so good to get more fresh veggies and fruit into my system and I notice it helps decrease acne and inflammation on my face. I try to drink this juice or my other recipe in the morning before I have coffee or any other food to help the nutrients get absorbed faster.

I use this Breville juicer and really love it. It is easy to clean and store away.

Ingredients:

  • 3 blood oranges (you can use navel oranges as well). These have a lot of vitamin A and C

  • 5 large carrots. Great source of vitamin K1 and potassium

  • 4 celery stocks. Great source of vitamin A, K, C as well as potassium and sodium.

  • 1 inch Fresh ginger with the skin peeled off (add more if you like your juice to have a super strong ginger taste). Ginger helps with inflammatory properties, which helps reduce stress and joint pain in the body.

  • 1 Turmeric root (2-3 inches) with the skin peeled off.

  • Black pepper (optional, but the black pepper helps the turmeric get absorbed in the body).

Directions:

  1. Peel oranges and wash all veggies really well. Cut off the ends of the celery stocks and carrot tops.

  2. Turn on your juicer and add the ingredients in any order.

  3. Stir the juice so it evenly combines. Store your juice in an airtight glass jar for 24 hours (sometime I even push it to 48 hours).
