But that’s not all. By
drinking this juice, you’re doing favors for your body that will have lasting
benefits. Let’s take a quick look at the ingredients:
Ginger’s
healing properties have been known for centuries. The natural chemicals it
contains reduce nausea and inflammation, so it’s no surprise that ginger has
been used to treat issues like motion and morning sickness, colic, gas, nausea
and diarrhea as well as pain from arthritis and muscle soreness.
Carrots are
the crunchy superfood that I eat nearly every day. Why? Well, as a great source
of vitamin A and beta-carotine, they contribute to beautiful skin, good
eyesight, anti-aging, prevention of cancer, stroke and heart disease, and are
helpful in cleansing the body.
Tangelos
are a citrus hybrid of tangerines and pomelos (or grapefruit). I love how their
tangy flavor sets off the sweetness of the carrots. Like other citrus fruits, tangelos are an excellent source
of vitamin C and flavinoids. Vitamin C is well known for the treatment and
prevention of colds and throat infections, as well as urinary tract infections.
And for anti-aging, vitamin C can’t be beat for preventing the damage done by
free radicals.
Mint is
the hardy herb that anyone can grow.
Whether in a pot or in the ground, mint easily takes hold and grows with
very little attention. Just give it a home and regular water, and you can have
a fresh sprig of mint anytime you want! Aside from its delicious scent, mint is
wonderful for treating digestive tract issues as well as for cleansing the
blood.
E3Live is
the world’s first and only fresh-frozen algae. It contains more than 65
vitamins, minerals, amino acids and essential fatty acids that are more readily
absorbed by your body. To learn more about this nutritious powerhouse, click

And now, for the recipe!
You’ll need a juicing
machine. They are now readily available pretty much everywhere.
5 organic carrots
1 tangelo (or citrus fruit
of your choice)
1 inch length of fresh
ginger root
several sprigs of fresh mint
1-2 Tablespoons of E3Live
Wash the carrots, mint and ginger root and peel the tangelo. I like to put the mint,
ginger and tangelo through the juicer first, followed by the carrots. Stir in
the E3live, garnish with a sprig of mint and enjoy!
