Skin-friendly Muesli

All the main ingredients of muesli are considered important elements of a healthy diet: fruits packed with enzymes,wheat grains are rich in fibre and essential trace elements, multi-vitamin fruit juice as source of healthy nutrients.

Fresh muesli is a tasty way to start the day with one or two portions of fresh fruit. Try this recipe:

Skin-friendly Muesli:

1 can fruit cocktail (medium size)
40g (1 1/2 oz) flaked millet
2tsp wheatgerm
100ml (4fl oz) multi-vitamin juice (try Innergize Orange)

Mix all ingredients. Serves 2.

Why this Works?

  • adding wheat germ as a source of vitamin E to your diet, moisturizes the skin
  • Millet is tasty, with a mildly sweet, nut-like flavor and contains a myriad of beneficial nutrients. It is nearly 15% protein, contains high amounts of fiber, B-complex vitamins including niacin, thiamin, and riboflavin, the essential amino acid methionine, lecithin, and some vitamin E. It is particularly high in the minerals iron, magnesium, phosphorous, and potassium
  • Innergize as a multi vitamin juice is fortified with 100% RDI and vitamin C and nearly two-thirds of the RDI of beta Carotene – two antioxidants that play a key role in cell defense.
