A Winter Beauty Juice

If you feel that your skin needs a little boost from inside out, you may want to try my beauty juice. I find that a large dose of nutrients that include antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, minerals such as zinc and copper, vitamin C, and beta-carotene help me bring back the glow to my skin that seems to naturally fade a little during the cold winter months. To decrease inflammation in the body and to better absorb all the beta-carotene I added cold pressed flax oil to my juice. 
 
I am using organic, untreated oranges and will juice them with the peel on. Orange peel has more vitamin C than the orange itself, and is rich in such antioxidant compounds as quercetin and hesperidin. 


Ingredients:
  • 2-3 beets
  • 2-3 large carrots
  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 3-4 large organic untreated oranges
  • 1 inch ginger root
  • 1 Tbsp cold pressed flax oil


Method:
  • Pass all ingredients (except the oil) through a juicer. Add flax oil and mix well.
  • Pour juice into tall glasses and enjoy it in good company!
