Nectarine Cantaloupe Dreamsicle Juice

This is such a great anti-inflammatory beauty juice!  It has a light, smooth, creamy flavor and is lightly sweet without being too much.  It is kind of reminiscent of a cross between a mimosa, a bellini and a Creamsicle.  Any way you describe it, it is just plain good!

This juice is loaded with vitamin C, beta  carotene, B vitamins, potassium and loads of skin-glow inducing antioxidants.  Turmeric is a potent anti-inflammatory that studies have found to be as effective as a variety of anti-inflammatory drugs.  This means it can potentially help reduce the horrible pain of inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, endometriosis and headaches while potentially calming autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease like Crohn’s disease and ulcertative colitis.  Furthermore it has been shown to help reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, liver disease and other lifestyle related diseases.
