Radiance - The Juice Cleanse Co.

With Winter looming we are thinking about boosting our immune systems. A daily organic fresh juice does this brilliantly (try carrot, beetroot, kale, apple and ginger at home), but there are many other excellent natural plant products that can give added support. Right now we are loving two fantastic products from Comvita:

Comvita Manuka Honey & Blackcurrant Elixir is an all-in-one Winter wellness formula that contains the highest quality health-promoting honey, anti oxidants and zinc.

Comvita Olive Leaf Extract with Aloe is a well known natural cold and flu buster. As an added bonus this is on special offer at the moment. Simply enter the code 'aloe13' at checkout when purchasing any other product which is over £4.99 and receive the Olive Leaf Extract for only £5. 

Both Christina and I love raw food and I have been meaning to try the Primrose Kitchen muesli for a while. I am a huge ginger fan so when I saw their Raw Beetroot and Ginger Muesli in Wholefoods this week I knew I had to try it. I wasn't disappointed. When it says it has ginger it really means it, and the same goes for the beetroot. The ginger creates a fiery taste and gives a proper kickstart to the day, whilst the beetroot gives it an earthy sweetness. I had it with almond milk (which turned pink!) and it was delicious! If beetroot and ginger aren't your thing then they also have a Carrot, Apple and Cinnamon Muesli - I will definitely be trying this soon.  So for a fast, easy and nutritious start to your day this is a great option. Available online from www.primroseskitchen.com and various retail stockists. 

We were super excited to be asked to create a bespoke kale juice shot for the exclusive launch of Nourish Revital-Eyes Kale Biomimetic Anti-Ageing Eye Cream at our favourite go to organic apothecary, Content Beauty & Wellbeing. The juice shots were available in store during the launch and the feedback we received was fantastic! We've since been trying the eye cream and can testify to the results!

Below is a quick and easy recipe to try:

1 cucumber

1 apple

1/2 lime (peeled)

1 large handful of kale

Put all of the ingredients through your juicer, use the cucumber to push the kale through. Serve immediately.
