Fast Fruit & 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
