Need a system reset?
Have you ever had food poisoning? Or maybe a horrible hangover that left you feeling terrible and depleted?
I ate something yesterday that destroyed me, kept me up throwing up all night until there didn’t seem to be anything left in my stomach.
It can happen to anyone – and no matter what the cause its very important to take care of yourself the next day by replenishing and restoring your body.
I mixed up a very simple concoction that really rehydrated me, gave me a ton of antioxidant support and helped fight any bad bacteria that might still be hanging around.
Restorative Blend
- 1/2 grapefruit, everything minus the peel and seeds
- 1 cup coconut water
- 6-8 fresh basil leaves
Blend. Drink. Make another one later to use that grapefruit.
Nutrition Facts
Benefits:
Coconut water contains potassium, an essential mineral and electrolyte, helpful for rehydrating and balancing the digestive system.
Grapefruit contains a phytonutrients called “lycopene” a powerful antioxidant that provides a cancer protection, and tons of Vitamin C, another highly beneficial antioxidant (plus I love the flavor and its very hydrating)!
Basil contains some really cool volatile oils that inhibits several species of pathogenic bacteria. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect, and helps reduce stomach cramps (and gas).
Super simple and easy! Try it out – even if you’re not feeling under the weather. Hope you all have a good night!
