Ginger is so warming to your body and because of its anti-inflammatory properties is great for relieving aches & pains. It is deeply comforting & healing to the digestive system.

Turmeric comes from the ginger family and so also has anti-inflammatory properties. It helps to purify the blood and is a great liver tonic.

Cucumber is made up mostly of water so it helps to keep the body hydrated and flushes toxins out. It's also great for healthy skin, hair and nails.

Most of these wonderful detoxifying ingredients can be easily added to smoothies, juices and soups. I have a cup of green tea with fresh lemon every morning :)
