Fast Fruit & Flax Juice

Fruit Fruit And Flax Juice

Try this simple recipe after your next massage. It provides calcium, which aids in muscle recovery, and vitamin C—an antioxidant that can help prevent oxidative damage from exercise or a vigorous massage. The flaxseed adds omega-3 fatty acids, which are important to anti-inflammatory processes, not to mention cardiac function, cognitive development and overall good health.

Ingredients
8 oz. calcium-fortified orange juice
2 Tbsp. ground flaxseed
3 ice cubes

Instructions
Blend until smooth.
