Get yourself ready
for the Cold & Flu Season with one of these daily
Vegan Raw Flu Shots
They’re easy to make
and will give you that extra immune boosting kick
you’ll need in these coming
months!
The “shots” comprise
of a glass of nutritious fruit & veg, blended into a true Vitamin-and
Mineral Bomb. That said, you’ll be able to make this in any blender, however,
we’re using a Breville Blend Active – which works a treat for shakes &
smoothies like this one!
The basis for 2
glasses include:
• 40g (big chunk) of
fresh Ginger, peeled
-> anti-flammatory,
anti-viral, anti-bacterial
• 1 clove of Garlic,
peeled
-> anti-bacterial, anti-biotical & anti-viral properties
• Juice of 1 pressed Orange and 1 pressed Lemon
-> full of vitamin C, anti-bacterial
• 2 Celery sticks, roughly chopped
-> source of potassium & supports hydration
• Hand-full of Spinach
-> source of K- and B-vitamins, minerals & fibre (to flush out
these germs!)
• 1 green Apple, roughly chopped
-> aids digestion & source of A- and C-vitamins
• 200-300ml Cranberry Juice
-> full of B-, C- and E-vitamins as well as antioxidants
• 1 Teaspoon of Wheatgrass Powder
-> so called “superfood” (packed with vitamins & minerals!) &
supports alleviation of inflammation
• 1 Teaspoon of Chia Seeds
-> full of anti-oxidants
& Omega-3 Fatty Acids (mood booster!)
And if you don’t mind it hot (optional):
• ½ red Chili, chopped
-> capsaicin supports pain reduction (e.g. onset of throat aches)
Add all ingredients into your mixer & blend thoroughly.
You can add more
juice or some water if you prefer the “shots” to be more liquid.
Feel free to adapt this recipe as you wish and to your taste! You can
exchange all fruit & vegetable items as you please e.g. instead of Celery
you could add peeled & roughly chopped Beetroot, instead of Spinach you
could add Kale and instead of an Apple you can use Banana etc. … The Juice is interchangeable
as well, so don’t hesitate to be adventurous and maybe add coconut water
instead!
Also, if you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome or similar, get rid of
the orange juice and instead use the juice of 2 lemons (lemons, unlike common
belief, are alkalizing and can therefore help support the work of stomach acid
in a positive way!).
Also, you might want to take a rain-check on the chili in that
case.
Enjoy !!!
Enjoy !!!
