Juicing Citrus

Daily gratitude:  That I can make smart choices and be happy with them

Morning Citrus Squeeze

2 grapefruit
1 blood orange
1 tangerine
1 lemon
4 carrots
14 strawberries
1/2 inch ginger
Run through the juicer
This is a tangy, tongue tingling citrus juice high in vitamins C and A.  Grapefruit is also high in enzymes that help burn fat as well as having a high antioxidant content.  It is also been studied and shown to help lower cholesterol in animals.    I did not peel the grapefruit or any of the citrus as I have learned that the peel and pith contain many nutrients.  Plus, I don't mind the tartness of it.

Enjoy your morning.
