✨ Iron-Boosting Fruit Punch
Fuel your body with vibrant energy and natural goodness! This refreshing, nutrient-packed juice is not only delicious, it’s a fantastic way to support healthy iron levels—especially great for those looking to combat fatigue, improve circulation, or simply boost their daily wellness.
Ingredients:
1 lemon (peeled) – Adds vitamin C, which helps your body absorb iron more effectively. Also brings a bright, zesty flavor!
1 medium beet (peeled and chopped) – A powerhouse of iron, folate, and natural nitrates that support blood health and stamina.
6 oz strawberries (fresh or frozen) – Rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber. They sweeten the mix and aid in iron absorption.
1/2 pineapple (peeled and chopped) – Naturally sweet and tropical, pineapple is high in vitamin C, bromelain, and manganese, helping digestion and immunity.
Optional Add-ins:
1 tsp chia seeds (soaked) – Adds omega-3s, fiber, and a bit more iron.
A handful of spinach or kale – For an extra hit of plant-based iron and chlorophyll.
Fresh mint leaves – For a cool, refreshing finish.
