This concoction I threw together was sooo tasty!
As you can see, I used a whole grapefruit, two stems of kale, two kiwis (cut up but I kept the skin on), one lemon, and one cucumber. It made enough juice for Chase and I to each have a healthy glass. I honestly looooved this combination!
Grapefruit is delicious, and has lot of benefits!
- It's obviously a citrus fruit, so it's high in Vitamin C, which is always good! Vitamin C is actually essential for our bodies to produce healthy collagen.. which prevent wrinkles!
- Grapefruit also speeds up metabolism and helps drop those extra pounds! Can't go wrong there!
- It helps to prevent and ease arthritis. After my knee surgery, my Doc told me that I will for sure have arthritis in my knee at a young age. That's so scary to me! So any (natural) thing I can do to postpone/ease it, i'm on board.
- Grapefruit also contains citrus limonoids which help prevent cancerous cells from forming.. that's HUGE!
- It also helps to lower cholesterol.
Yummy!
