In the old days when juicing wasn’t popular and when fasting meant that you drank only water for a period of time, carrot juice was the juice of choice in the health world. Mainly because carrot juice has so many benefits which range from improving your eye sight to being a remedy for cancer. Carrot juice boosts our immunity, helps to detoxify the liver and is amazing for your skin. Slowly over the years, we began adding other ingredients such as ginger, apple, oranges and lemons. Try this recipe, you can of course leave out the chilli if that is not your bag. But I’m certain you will enjoy this.
