Suitable For: People prone to colds or flu, individuals suffering from joint pain or inflammation, or anyone wanting a glowing complexion.
Health Benefits: Turmeric contains curcumin, a powerful anti-inflammatory compound. Fresh orange and lemon provide high levels of Vitamin C to boost immunity. Ginger aids digestion, and carrots offer skin-protecting antioxidants.
Ingredients
- Fresh Turmeric -- 2 cm piece
- Fresh Ginger -- 1 cm piece
- Carrots -- 4 medium (240g)
- Orange -- 1 medium (peeled)
- Lemon -- ½ fruit (peeled)
- Celery -- 3 stalks (120g)
Steps
-
Prep: Wash produce. Peel the orange and lemon (leave the white pith on the orange for extra nutrition). It is not necessary to peel the turmeric or ginger if they are organic and washed well.
-
Juice: Feed the small roots (turmeric and ginger) into the juicer first. Follow with carrots, celery, and the citrus fruits.
-
Finish: Stir well. The color will be a vibrant orange.
- Serve: Pour into a glass over ice.
Tips & Variations
- Pro Tip: Add a pinch of black pepper to your finished juice! Piperine in black pepper increases the absorption of curcumin (from turmeric) by up to 2000%.
- Staining: Fresh turmeric stains easily. Rinse your juicer parts immediately after use to prevent yellowing.
Best Time to Drink
During breakfast to start your day with an immunity shield, or when you feel the first signs of a cold coming on.
