Apple // red apples have B-complex vitamins which play an important role in maintaining healthy red blood cells and a strong nervous system. They are also rich in polyphenolic compounds that help protect the body from negative effects of free radicals.
Carrot // carrots contain a number of antiseptic and antibacterial abilities that make it ideal for boosting the immune system. They are a rich source of Vitamin C, which stimulates the activity of white blood cells and is one of the most important elements in the immune system.
Beetroot // beetroot juice helps to lower blood pressure in a matter of hours. They have naturally occurring nitrates in beets, which are converted into nitric oxide in your body. Nitric oxide helps to relax and dilate your blood vessels, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure. Beetroots are also a unique source of betaine, a nutrient that helps fight inflammation, protect internal organs, improve vascular risk factors, enhance performance, and likely help prevent disease.
Ginger // ginger is rich volatile oils which stimulate the digestive system to work properly and with ease by regulating gut contractions. It also helps to soothe and settle the gut wall, thereby easing any pain and inflammation and removing excess gas from the digestive tract. Ginger contains very potent anti-inflammatory compounds called gingerols which help to strengthen the immune system.
