The Red Project; Healthy hair from the inside out. /Projecto Rojo; Cabello saludable de adentro hacia afuera

I always had certain hate for some red fruits, specially in juices. My mom used to do a mix of Beet root, carrot and orange juice and sometimes with oat meal. You can find this kind of juices at street vendors all over Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, drank usually by laborers to go throughout hard work till lunch time.

Recently I found out that my Mom and Grandmom were right about how good this juice is for our overall health and healthy hair, so I decided to include it in my diet and my journey to healthy long hair and fit body "Naturalfit" I call it. 

So, Why Beets and Carrots? 
Beets are high in carbohydrates, low in fat and it is an excellent source of folic acid. it is loaded with  beta-carotene, folic acid, chlorophyll, potassium, vitamin C, iron and antioxidants. 

Carrot contains carotene, a chemical that is converted into vitamin A by the body, it can improve the appearance of the skin, hair and nails.
A rich diet in fruits and vegetables help promote heart health and help lower blood pressure.
Ingredients of my Red juice: 
Beets, peels and cut into pieces
carrots, peeled and cut into pieces  
Oat meal
Orange juice
Splenda, stevia or Honey
Spinach (opcional)
Beet/carrot juice
You can also use these ingredients as an external use and some others combinations, here are link to :
