ABC JUICE

 ABC JUICE

We have ABC Juice once in a while and find it useful.  While going through my blog recently, I was surprised to find I had not posted about this earlier- so here it is. Better late than never! 

ABC Juice first came into prominence from the East Asian wellness programs of China and Taiwan. Now everyone knows that the acronym ABC Juice comes from the principal ingredients of Apple, Beetroot and Carrot ! This juice was swiftly adopted to wellness programs worldwide. It became very popular for the benefits derived from drinking it. 

The major health benefits are that this drink is rich in antioxidants, supports liver function, helps digestion, boosts immunity etc as detailed in this article from Radcliffe Labs. 

It is widely believed that for the best results, you should have ABC Juice first thing in the morning- on an empty stomach. Having this a few days a week, it is said, is good for health.
