found that drinking a 750ml glass of orange juice every single day can help increase the
overall antioxidant count in your body significantly!

Number 3.
Potato juice
When you think of “potatoes' ' surely potato juice isn’t the first thing that pops up
in your head
It’s probably french fries, isn’t it?
Well, as good as they feel like they should be for the heart,
They’re actually pretty darn terrible…
But that doesn’t mean that potatoes themselves are bad for you,
It’s just the way you use them!
Now obviously frying potatoes isn’t where we’re going,
We’re talking about potato juice!
Potatoes are one of the best things nature has given us,
They’re high in nutrients like calcium and zinc which helps bone health,
And the tones of fiber help aid digestion!
However, fiber isn’t just considered beneficial because it helps digestion,
It’s also because as the body digests the food quickly, it also gets rid of a lot of
cholesterol!
And that’s something we do not want a lot of in our bodies…
just when you think we’ve been over everything that potatoes have to offer,
They surprise you with a few extra tricks you might not know about!
Potatoes are high in choline, which is a nutrient that is a great anti-inflammatory…
It helps everything from bones to the heart!
potassium present in potato juice can help clear the blocked arteries
And increase the blood flow to the heart,
Which helps prevent heart disease and vascular calcification in the arteries.
You can make potato juice by grating potatoes and squeezing the juice out using a cheesecloth,
Or by cutting one into lots of little cubes and blending it!
The blended option becomes a bit of a smoothie, but that’s still better than not having
it at all!
Although the taste may not be the best, it’s still worth it when you think of the benefits!
Number 2.
Tomato juice
almost everyone knows that whether you say tomato or tom-aa-to,
They’re a fruit that’s really good for you.
That’s also why it’s so widely used all around the world!
But have you ever thought about what it really does for your heart, like on the inside?
Tomato juice is full of proteins and fiber, along with vitamins a, c, and k!
Like we’ve talked about earlier, potassium and magnesium are two of the most important
nutrients for the heart!
According to a 2017 study by the university of alberta, magnesium alone can help strengthen
the heart a lot!
That in 2013, the world health organization collaborating centre for nutrition found that
Regular intake of tomato juice could reduce the chances of stroke by 24%
And for double that number, the blood pressure regulates so much
That they basically never have to worry about poor heart health ever again!
there are a few different ways for making tomato juice,
But the easiest may be to just squeeze it through some cheesecloth or blend it!
But how you consume the tomato is on you!
All you have to do is have it every day!
Number 1.
Bitter gourd juice
And finally, we have the juice that’s arguably the hardest to drink
Bitter gourd juice.
This one, literally has the word “bitter” in its name,
So it’s not going to be a very refreshing drink, at least when it comes to taste!
But the worse it is to drink this one, the better it is for your body!
Bitter gourds are great for controlling blood sugar levels!
A 3-month study published in the journal of medicinal food showed that
Those that consumed 2000 mg of this fruit every day,
Were found to have lower blood sugar, and keep it that way for a short period of time!
Finally, this juice has also proved to clean arteries.
A 2013 study by the institute for quality and efficiency in health care showed that
bitter gourd juice may also clean the arteries!
Helping the blood flow easier, and decreases the chance for heart diseases!
This juice can easily be made by blending it in the blender with one cup of water!
Once you notice that no chunks remain, you can go ahead and drink it!
If you want it to be a little more flavorful, you can add salt, pepper and some lemon into
it
