In the Reboot Kitchen: SunnyG Juice
By Stacy Kennedy, MPH, RD, CSO, LDN; Reboot Nutritionist
Skip the high sugar corn syrup and artificial colors found in classic “SunnyD” type drinks and opt for a fresh juice that’s sweetly all natural. We call it SunnyG, thanks to the ginger. Drink in the spring sunshine with this vibrant juice packed with antioxidants Vitamin C and Vitamin A that help keep our immune system strong and our skin radiant and glowing. Mangoes are also rich in potassium, an important nutrient needed by all of our cells, including our muscles. Potassium rich diets are shown to help maintain healthy blood pressure levels.
