The combination of turmeric, ginger, lemon and black pepper is a great way to help reduce inflammation in the body. This juice packs a lot of other health benefits as well like boosting the immune system, improving digestion and more. 

These shots are potent so drink at your own risk! I like to add 2 tbsp of it to a 12 oz glass of water to help dilute it.  For maximum benefits drink this in the morning before eating anything else so it absorbs the nutrients quickly. I've been drinking this in place of my morning lemon water.

This anti-inflammatory juice can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days. I recommend freezing extra in ice cube trays. Then take one out the night before, put in a glass and set in fridge. In the morning it will be melted and you can add it to your water or take the shot.
