Good morning dear Steemians, how are you? Today I bring you 5 recipes of natural and very rich juices that contribute to improve your health. I hope you like the post and if I have something to improve or have any suggestions let me know in comments. Let's go to the post itself:
The best way to get very easy your daily portion of fruit!
Everyone knows that fruit is very good for health. Every day we should eat our portion of fresh vegetables, but we should also eat at least two pieces of fruit a day.
In my experience this works excellently in summer, but when the temperature drops a lot, it rains and the sky turns dark grey, I don't feel like eating a sour, fresh apple. What's the solution? Make juices!
I drink very little industrial fruit and vegetable juice every day, I don't like added sugar and preservatives. If I want to have a fruit-flavored drink, I prefer to make it myself in my juicer, which is much healthier for me and my family. In addition, it lets me know exactly what I'm drinking and be able to make the perfect and fair mix of fruits and vegetables.
Don't be afraid at all to use vegetables next to fruits. Some vegetables, like carrots and beets, are quite sweet and taste great with apples or oranges. You'll find it's not so hard to eat the suggested daily servings of fruits and vegetables preparing your own juices in winter. And by mixing a little ginger, you will not only make your drink more spicy, but it will also help your immune system, especially if you are male as it acts by helping to increase testosterone.
Have I convinced you? Then try my five super tasty juice recipes! It won't take much work: you should first wash the fruits and vegetables, put them in the juicer, put the juice in a glass and enjoy your homemade juices! Even when it rains and there's a lot of wind outside, I like to decorate our glasses with a little frosted sugar on the edge or a good cocktail sorbet for a great, fantastic summer feeling. Without further ado, let's move on to the ingredients:
