Kiwi Apple & Cucumber Juice
This tasty green juice will help ensure beautiful skin and will help smooth wrinkles and improve overall skin texture. Raw kiwi contains actinidain, a protein-dissolving enzyme that has been linked to improved digestion and has more vitamin C than the equivalent amount of orange, which makes this juice ideal for weight loss. Vitamin C has been linked to lower fat levels, especially in the stomach and abdomen.
