Orange Garden Juice
By Isabel Smith, MS, RD, CDN
This brightly-colored juice is packed with the vegetables you may not think of when making a delicious and healthy juice — fennel, peppers, carrots. Fennel is packed with colon-healthy quercitin (also found in pears and apples), and antioxidants anethole and rutin. The antioxidant anethole is known for helping to ease upset stomachs and for aiding digestion. Fennel is also a great source of potassium and vitamin C.
Make this tasty juice as a morning meal or as a snack to go. It is quick to make and the ingredients are easy to find.
