Help your immune system by making time for sleep and exercise, keeping stress in check, limiting alcohol and sweets, and of course loading up on those veggies and fruits. Fruits and vegetables contain natural, anti-inflammatory, immune supporting properties. This juice is fresh, crisp and full of good stuff. Fresh herbs like rosemary contain phytonutrients credited with reducing inflammation and helping skin. Ginger is known as a potent root with inflammation, nausea and potentially cholesterol-reducing capabilities. Celery root is loaded with electrolytes like calcium, magnesium, potassium and even natural sodium. Pair with pear’s antioxidants and you’ve got a juice that’s sure to taste great and help keep you feeling energized.
