Necessary ingredients
To prepare a natural source of energy and vitality you will need
- 1 lemon
- 1 kg beetroot
- 3 large apples
- 0.5 kg carrots
- 3 large oranges
- 1 kg of natural, high-quality bee honey.
Method of preparation and use
As mentioned above, the procedure for preparing this cocktail is very simple. Squeeze the lemon and oranges, clean the beetroot, apples and carrots and, if necessary, cut them into smaller pieces and blend them using a blender or food processor. Then mix the smoothie with the honey and pour the resulting cocktail into a glass bottle or another suitable sealable container.
Store the cocktail in a cool place and take half a glass each morning on an empty stomach. You will soon feel the invigorating effects of this drink, whose secret lies precisely in its composition. Lemon contains many antioxidants, especially vitamin C, which is one of the natural guardians of the immune system. Red beetroot contains a range of beneficial vitamins and also acts as a very strong antioxidant. Apples are a significant source of fiber and also vitamin C. And carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which the human body converts into vitamin A, which also contributes to strengthening the body’s defenses. You may not realize how many active substances such an apparently ordinary carrot contains. In addition to the aforementioned beta-carotene, these include especially selenium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, calcium, sodium, potassium, copper, iron and iodine, as well as a range of vitamins — besides vitamin C also vitamins B, D, E and K. For strengthening immunity this whole composition is beneficial, particularly vitamin C and selenium.
