Ingredients Highlights
When it comes to olive oil, “Extra Virgin” is the highest quality you can get. It comes from the first pressing of the olives with no chemicals used to extract the oil.
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.
Ginger is a potent aromatic herb and a good natural source of vitamin C, magnesium, potassium, copper, and manganese. It has been used for thousands of years in Asia to treat stomach ache, diarrhea, and nausea.
While limes are a rich source of vitamin C, they don’t contain as much as their citrus counterparts: oranges, lemons, and grapefruit.
Mangos calm nerves, support restful sleep, and help to purge the lymphatic system of toxins.
Tahini is made by grinding up sesame seeds. Similar to nut butters, it is a calorically dense food that is rich in minerals.
