Ginger Immunity-Boosting Juice

That sounds like a fantastic approach to health! Beets and ginger are both powerhouse ingredients packed with nutrients and known for their health benefits. While I don’t have a specific recipe called “Haven’t Been Sick for 35 Years: Beets and Ginger Keep Me Healthy,” I can definitely help you craft a nutrient-dense, immune-boosting recipe that incorporates those ingredients.

Here’s a refreshing, vibrant juice recipe that combines the natural goodness of beets and ginger:

Beet & Ginger Immunity-Boosting Juice

Ingredients:

• 2 medium-sized beets (peeled)

• 1-inch piece of fresh ginger (or more to taste)

• 2 carrots (peeled)

• 1 apple (for sweetness)

• 1/2 lemon (juiced)

• 1/2 cucumber (optional for extra hydration)

• A pinch of turmeric (optional for extra anti-inflammatory benefits)

• Water or coconut water (optional, to thin out the juice)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the ingredients:

   • Peel and chop the beets, carrots, apple, and cucumber into chunks that will fit into your juicer or blender.

   • Grate the ginger or slice it thinly to make it easier to juice or blend.

2. Juice or Blend:

   • Juicer: If you have a juicer, simply run all the ingredients through it.

   • Blender: If using a blender, add all the ingredients along with a bit of water or coconut water, then blend until smooth. If you want a smoother consistency, you can strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.

3. Add lemon and turmeric (optional):

   • After juicing, add the fresh lemon juice and a pinch of turmeric for an extra anti-inflammatory kick.

4. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Pour into a glass over ice if you like it chilled and drink immediately to enjoy the maximum nutritional benefits.

Why This Works:

• Beets: Packed with antioxidants, fiber, and essential minerals, beets are known to support detoxification, improve blood circulation, and provide a natural energy boost.

• Ginger: A powerful anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting root, ginger supports digestion, fights off infections, and helps with circulation.

• Carrots: Rich in beta-carotene, which is great for vision and skin health.

• Lemon: A natural detoxifier and high in Vitamin C, which helps strengthen the immune system.

• Turmeric: Contains curcumin, known for its potent anti-inflammatory properties.
