My Anti-Aging Detox Water

2/2/16 ~~

 
I love this detox water because it incorporates the anti-inflammatory benefits of turmeric to cleanse and remove toxins from your body and promote beautiful skin and disease prevention.  

I know I’ve said this many times – but inflammation is the starting point of accelerated aging, weight gain, and chronic diseases such as cancer.  Avoiding or reducing inflammation is the number one step you can make to feel better, look younger, and prevent disease.

This Detox water uses the combined health benefits of four powerful ingredients:

Turmeric – Its a health-promoting powerhouse due to a phytonutrient called curcumin, that gives extensive anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, comparable in effect to some over-the-counter drugs but without the side effects. 

Ginger – for stimulating the metabolism and circulation, soothing the digestive system, and detoxifying cells by the intense action of gingerol, its primary active substance.

Lemon – for its exceptional antioxidant powers;

Honey – Vitamins found in honey include vitamin B6, thiamin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid and niacin. In addition, the nutraceuticals contained in honey help neutralize damaging free radical activity and inflammation.

Like all of my detox waters – I drink this on an empty stomach before my workout to boost my metabolism, flush my body of toxins that trap fat, and to prevent age accelerating inflammation for glowing skin.  🙂
