Lemon Turmeric and honey tea
Drinking 2 L of water daily will help clean the skin.

Adding ½ a fresh lemon to your water can speed up the cleansing process and make water taste more refreshing.
A great anti-inflammatory for irritated skin and coughs and colds.

  • Juice of half a lemon

The Hulk Green Smoothie

Here is a fun super hero way of getting your kids to enjoy their greens!
Let’s be honest…..Feeding yourself and your kids healthy food is not an easy task and it takes a lot of hard work and effort to bypass most of the processed food and junk in supermarkets these days. 


Picture
Ingredients
  • 100g natural thick yoghurt with live cultures
  • 1/2 cup milk (your choice of organic dairy, soy, rice, almond, coconut)
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 handful baby spinach leaves (see note)
  • 1 banana
  • 1 teaspoon ground flaxseed (linseed) or whole chia seed
  • ½ cup ice
Method
Combine the yoghurt, milk, honey, spinach, banana, flaxseed and ice into a blender.
Blend until smooth, green and creamy. I like to use my Vitamix.
Serve immediately and enjoy.
