DETOX JUICE: beetroot, ginger and kaffir lime
Beetroot is a vegetable that is harvested from May to September. It is a concentrated vitamin detoxifier. It also helps fight cholesterol. It is eaten both hot and cold.
Ginger is a superfood, low in calories, high in nutrients and antioxidants, like turmeric (from the same family: zingiberaceae). In addition to these anti-inflammatory properties, studies show that it helps maintain the intestinal flora, relieves digestive disorders and promotes the cardiovascular system.
