Grapefruit, Ginger, and Mint Detox Juice

 

This is the first time I'm ever tasting grapefruit so excited to see how it tastes. Grapefruit is an incredibly healthy food to include in your diet. That’s because it’s high in nutrients, but low in calories. In fact, it’s one of the lowest-calorie fruits. Grapefruit may benefit your immune system, as it contains several vitamins and minerals known for their role in preventing infection. Grapefruits’ high content of vitamin C (beneficial for helping people recover more quickly from the common cold), which in turn protects your cells from harmful bacteria and viruses. Eating grapefruit before meals may be helpful for weight loss. Its fiber and water can promote fullness and reduce calorie intake. Grapefruit may help reduce insulin resistance, which can lower your risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Strawberry Cucumber Detox Juice

This a refreshing juice featuring one of my favorite fruits, strawberries! Dietary fibers are important to feed the friendly bacteria in your gut and improve digestive health. Strawberries are also useful for weight loss and can help prevent many diseases. Strawberries are a good source of vitamin C, manganese, folate (vitamin B9), and potassium. They contain small amounts of several other vitamins and minerals. Strawberries may decrease your risk of heart disease and cancer, as well as help regulate blood sugar because of their ability to fight oxidative stress and inflammation.

Carrots, Tomato, and Orange Detox Juice

 

Day 4 has more brightly colored vegetables and fruits, carrots and oranges. Carrots are a particularly good source of beta carotene, fiber, vitamin K1, potassium, and antioxidants. Carrots are rich in beta carotene (vitamin A), which your body converts into vitamin A. This nutrient promotes good vision and is important for growth, development, and immune function. Intake of carrots has been linked to lower cholesterol levels. Individuals with low vitamin A levels are more likely to experience night blindness, a condition that may diminish by eating carrots or other foods rich in vitamin A or carotenoids. Carotenoids may also cut your risk of age-related macular degeneration
