Nothing shows that you respect and love your body more than taking down a healthy morning shot before you consume your breakfast meal. Healthy shots are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can work wonders for your body and mind. Sure, they might not be the most delicious – but the health benefits are overwhelming! Healthy shots are a great alternative to juices which can be high in sugar and less concentrated. These healthy drinks are best taken on an empty stomach in the morning. Food should be used as medicine, not only pleasure, so give these shots a try!
1. Apple Cider Vinegar Lemon Turmeric Shot
