Wanna feel better immediately? Taking a shot always works for me. Not the kind of shot you might be thinking (although I've been told, those work pretty well too). ;)
An anti inflammatory shot! When I start to feel a little run down or if my immune system just feels like it needs a little kick in the pants, this is my go to shot and I must say, I can feel the effects immediately.
Warning: This shot is potent and tastes that way too!
Ingredients:
2 small turmeric root knobs
1 knob of ginger root (about 1")
2 organic carrots
1 organic lemon with peel on (omit the peel if your lemon is not organic)
A couple dashes of black pepper (studies have shown that the piperine in black pepper makes the turmeric 2000% more bioavailable)
Optional: Add 1 green apple for a slightly sweeter taste (I like to omit that in mine for less sugar, and because my taste buds are kind of badasses).
Instructions:
Peel turmeric and ginger
Cut all ingredients into to chunks small enough to fit into a juicer
Juice away!
Notes:
Juice the turmeric first, then the carrots, ginger and lemon, then the apple, if you are using it. (I use the lemon last because it helps remove a bit of staining from the turmeric on the juicer attachment).
