Carrots and avocados when combined, according to Dr. Ben Kim

provide an excellent source for immune system boosting and

eye health.

Wow.

The carrots are loaded with caratenoids

that make Vitamin A which provide

antioxidants, when converted through the liver,

maintain night vision

and assist in preventing cataracts and macular degeneration.

The avocados are full of lutein which contain antioxidants that

keep free radicals away from the eyes.

Together, they work synergystically.

Here’s a fantastic raw soup recipe from Dr. Kim

that when consumed a few times a week,

insures healthy vision support.

Why raw?

Raw foods are all about live enzymes and

mega amounts of fresh nutrients.

Raw foods keep us vibrant and feeling healthy.

Raw foods are healing and alive.

Raw foods slow down the aging process.

Raw foods increase energy.

Raw foods add appropriate bacteria to the intestinal tract.

Thanks, Dr. Kim.
