The Magic Juice Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 medium beetroot (peeled and chopped)
• 1 small apple (preferably green, chopped, with the skin on for extra fiber)
• 1 small carrot (peeled and chopped)
• 1-inch piece of ginger (peeled and chopped)
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (optional for added cholesterol-lowering benefits)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds (soaked in water for 10 minutes for extra fiber)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder (known for its anti-inflammatory properties)
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (helps regulate blood sugar levels)
• 1 cup water or coconut water (for hydration and extra nutrients)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the ingredients: Peel and chop the beetroot, apple, carrot, and ginger into small pieces for easier blending.
2. Blend: Add the beetroot, apple, carrot, ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon to a blender. Pour in the water or coconut water.
3. Add lemon and vinegar: Squeeze in the fresh lemon juice and add the apple cider vinegar if using.
4. Blend until smooth: Blend on high until all ingredients are fully liquefied. If the mixture is too thick, add more water or coconut water to reach your desired consistency.
5. Add chia seeds: Once blended, stir in the soaked chia seeds for extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
6. Serve: Pour the juice into a glass. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can strain the juice before serving.
7. Enjoy: Drink this juice fresh in the morning or as a mid-day health booster.
