The following is a guest article and recipe from my friend, and juicing guru Drew Canole.
It’s not normal to feel awful when you first wake up in the morning. Rather, you should feel absolutely amazing and bursting with vibrant energy. For 5,000 years, Ayurveda has been practiced to incorporate different herbs and spices that can boost up your immune system. Unfortunately, due to our lack of knowledge on natural remedies, we often take pharmaceutical medications and antibiotics.
The solution to your problem is an elixir that I personally made. The recipe includes lemon, ginger, turmeric, cayenne, vanilla bean, honey and coconut water. It’s easy to make and we can get these ingredients virtually everywhere. I call this the Grandpa Gubons Miracle Elixir, named after my grandfather.

Acts like an anti-inflammatory drug : A 2004 study published in the journal Oncogene found that curcumin (as well as resveratrol) were effective alternatives to the drugs aspirin, ibuprofen, sulindac, phenylbutazone, naproxen, indomethacin, diclofenac, dexamethasone, celecoxib, and tamoxifen in exerting anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activity against tumor cells.
Ginger
Ginger may also help reduce chronic pain, by lowering your levels of hormones that induce inflammation. A study published in 2005, suggests that ginger could lessen pain more effectively than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Also, in lab tests, scientists have showed that ginger extract may slow the growth of colorectal and ovarian cancer cells, as well as protection against Alzheimer’s disease.
Lemon
Functions like a liver cleanser by stimulating the liver, removing toxins like uric acid and liquefies the bile. This is part of the reason why lemons are used as a great cleanser. Also
contains Vitamin P, which is known as Flavonoids. This is a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralize free radials associated with cellular damage and aging.
The combination of ginger and turmeric help in removing toxins from the digestive system. Lemon is known as the only citrus fruit in the planet that helps for phase-2 liver detoxification. Honey boosts your immune system. Coconut water increases nutrient absorpti
on by 40%! Cayenne pepper is added to speed-up metabolism and the thermogenic process, and Vanilla bean is for flavor.
Step 1: Juice the Lemon,Ginger and Turmeric.
Step 2: Add Coconut water
Step 3: Add the Honey, Vanilla bean, and Cayenne pepper
Just to share with you, I haven’t been to a doctor for any serious illness since my transformation and you shouldn’t either. There’s no excuse for feeling bad in the morning. There’s no excuse for having less energy than what is required to spend quality time with your family. Boost your immune system so that sickness and fatigue doesn’t even cross your mind.
Here is the juice recipe that I’m talking about. This will definitely help in strengthening your immune system.Grandpa
