Not all spices are created equal. Turmeric is not only delicious to add to your favourite recipes, but it also has so many healing properties. As an Ayurvedic spice that’s been used for thousands of years, it’s no wonder why it’s become so popular in the Western culture as well. Its anti-inflammatory properties can decrease inflammation that comes in the form of joint pain, or even skin issues such as acne or psoriasis. The carrots also add a kick of Vitamin A, which is great for the skin and eyesight. We threw in mango and orange for some Vitamin C to help you boost your immunity after what was a hopefully eventful long weekend. Enjoy this delicious and powerful smoothie!
