A guide for maintaining good health.
It’s important in life that what you eat and drink, what you consume and put into your body, aids and assists that body to stay healthy. There is a whole billion-dollar industry for health substances of every kind, all of them offering to keep you healthy and contribute to a long and fruitful existence.
But what if we told you that one of the most effective ways to maintain good health and vitality is not to be found in exotic, esoteric health supplements but is in simple fruit and vegetable blended drinks? No catch, nothing fancy, just simple, good old fashioned greens that your Mommy always impressed on you to finish at dinner when you would rather move straight to dessert!
Green fruits and vegetables are invaluable sources of nutrients and proteins that maintain good health in your body, flush out unhelpful toxins, and form a defense against such factors as acne and aging. They also are fantastic vanguards against skin problems, providing needed hydration and regenerative assistance, giving your skin a healthy glow in the process.
In this article, we’ll feature some of the fruits and vegetables you can put into a green drink, what the benefits are, and what health-supporting properties they contain.
1. Aloe Vera
When preparing a green health drink, adding aloe vera juice will not only provide a pleasing flavoring but will actively boost skincare. It is a rich source of antioxidants that will help the collagen in your skin fight aging as well as acne, and even more than that, it’s been scientifically proven to help reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.
2. Kale
If you take an interest in healthy foodstuffs, you may have already heard about this vegetable. It’s been all the rage in health circles of late and for good reason. Kale is a highly effective anti-inflammatory positively loaded with vitamins such as A, C, K, E, B1-3, and calcium. It also helps support your immune system with omega-3 fatty acids, regulating blood pressure and helping reduce risk of various cancers.
3. Papaya
Not just mouth-wateringly delicious tropical fruit but a formidable repository of rich vitamins such as E, C, lycopene, and beta-carotene. They also pack a healthy punch with the inclusion of digestive enzymes that help fight various forms of inflammation by breaking down unwanted and inflammatory foreign proteins.
4. Carrots
Not just good for Bugs Bunny but for you too! Carrots are simply chock full of Vitamin A, a powerful antioxidant that fights against the onset signs of aging and greatly aids the regenerative properties of your cells. They’re also fortified with Vitamin C, helping the body produce natural collagen which helps against skin inflammations like acne but also detoxifies your liver, breaking down and ridding it of natural toxins that can lead to liver disease.
5. Ginger
In a nutshell, ginger is one of the most powerful tools you have in maintaining health and vitality! Loaded for bear and packing a real punch when it comes to anti-inflammatory properties, giving your immune system a very real and substantial boost. It’s also positively loaded with natural nutrients that your body needs, such as magnesium, potassium, manganese, Vitamin B6, and antioxidants which can visibly reduce the early onset of aging.
These are just a (very) short list of elements that can contribute to a healthy and life-enhancing ‘green drink’. There are so many more to include that we recommend you do your own research into it. Believe us when we say your body will thank you for it. Good health to you!
