Ingredient Highlights
Apples cleanse the colon of bacteria, viruses, yeast, and mold. They also support the liver, digestive tract function, and brain health.
Beets are packed with B vitamins, manganese, and betaine, plus they also support emotional and nervous system health.
Celery is rich in the flavonoid apigenin, which has been found to inhibit tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis in a wide variety of cancers.
Garlic is a member of the allium family (which also includes onion, scallion, shallot, leek, and chives) and is clinically shown to support the immune system.
Even though it’s commonly referred to as ginger root – ginger is actually a rhizome, not a root. A rhizome is an underground stem.
