Note: When it comes to making fresh juices for the entire family, it’s important to be mindful of the portion size, which is 6-8 oz for a child. It’s also important to remember to add a moderate portion of juice in addition to a meal as opposed to using the juice to replace a meal– remember children are growing and need adequate calories, protein and nutrients! This easy to make juice contains a source of beta-carotene from the carrots that acts as an antioxidant to combat cellular damage in the body and can also help to promote eye health. This juice also contains a good source of immune-boosting vitamin C from the lemon and the carrots that can help to combat the back-to-school cold. To mix it up you can swap the lemon for a lime and also swap the cucumber for celery for a good source of natural electrolytes. Courtesy of Reboot with Joe
