Here Are Some Healthy Beauty Secrets

With those holiday parties coming up, I thought you might like a couple of tips for glowing beauty from within.
Sarah Merson, author of "The Top 100 Foods For a Younger You" and a mom of three, believes the Green Garden Cocktail is amongst the single most important recipe in her book that moms can use to remain youthful.
“It's a fabulous detoxifier, which leaves the skin glowing and also promotes overall elasticity of the skin. It also gives boundless energy which is a true characteristic of youth,” Merson says.
She has a way to sneak some veggies into your kids, too.
“As a fellow mum, I'd have to add in that the Carrot Beauty Juice is a quick and easy recipe to start each day with -- and the kids love it too,” Merson says. “Apart from anything else, it's a great way to get them to eat their vegetables or fruit without really realizing it.”

Here are the recipes:

Green Garden Cocktail
1 tray fresh wheatgrass
2 celery stalks
Handful of parsley
Masticating juicer
To harvest wheatgrass, grasp a small bundle of blades firmly and cut them off above the compost level. Rinse all ingredients in cold water and feed them into the juicer. Repeat with 2-3 more wheatgrass bundles. Drink about 2 tablespoonfuls each day on an empty stomach.

Carrot Beauty Juice
4 cucumbers
4 parsnips
8-12 carrots, scrubbed with tops removed
2 lemons, peeled
1 green bell pepper
Cut cucumber and parsnips lengthwise and feed through a juicer. Follow with other ingredients. Pour into a glass and serve.
