Vitamin C Overload



Vitamin C: (Also known as L-ascorbic acid)vitamin C is an essential nutrient for humans, more importantly MOMS everywhere!! In living organisms, ascorbate acts as an antioxidant by protecting the body against oxidative stress. So what does that mean? Ascorbate helps ward off many diseases such as heart disease/failure, Parkinson's, and Alzhiemer's- diseases especially prone to women. Thats right moms! Drink another glass!

What you will need:

- 1 lb raspberries
- 3 navel oranges (peeled)
- 1 lime (peeled)
- 2 roma tomatoes
- 2 ripe peaches
(It is important that you do NOT cut the fruit unless you are removing the seed or cutting it so that it will fit in the juicer. The more you cut, the more juice you loose on your cutting board. Also, do NOT remove the skin unless it is citrus fruit because the skin in most fruits and veggies holds a large part of the nutrient content.)

Yeild: 3 (8 oz) glasses

Juice according to the instructions on YOUR juicer.
