Any Ideas For A Smoothie Shop Mask For Kids

Ideas? plz!?

How to hide the taste of carrots?

I like your smoothie idea, however you need some STRONG flavours in there to mask the carrot taste. Banana would be good. Also, if you have some vanilla pods lurking around now would be a good time to use them!

Alternatively, try diluting the carrot juice with water. I hate carrot juice neat on its own, but when diluted its quite refreshing :) You could also freeze it (slightly diluted) into ice lollies for a zingy summer pick-me-up for when the weather improves.

If you really do hate it, use it for cooking - use in a soup, on salad (goes great with a raisin based salad!), or as a stock to cook rice or other grains.

Good luck, good on you for being healthy!

EDIT: Just found this awesome link which should help you! http://www.livestrong.com/article/438026...

Are there any risks to blending vitamin pills into a smoothie?

It depends on what’s in your smoothie and which supplements you are taking. Some high-fiber veggies and fruits will interfere with your gut’s absorption of mineral supplements. Take them separately, or in liquid form (which is OK for mineral supplements, just don’t overdose). A smoothie isn’t really the best place to add fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K, beta-carotene, lutein, lycopene, etc.) unless you also add either coconut oil, coconut, or avocado. A few brands have “fillers” (excipients) that are kind of chalky, but they aren’t terrible tasting.

Can I use carrot juice for two months for skin whitening?

I can’t stop laughing when I think of this guy who actually tried this carrot juice recipe!He was a friend of mine and you see, his lifestyle was not a healthy one - he used to drink a lot a smoked almost 2 packs a day.One day, he decided that he needed a healthier change, although he kept smoking and drinking the same way he did before. He made the decision to drink a glass of carrot juice a day so that he could feel more energized and fulfill the lack of nutrients in his diet. And he really did - actually, the carrot juice even replaced his breakfast!You are asking whether your skin will become whiter after drinking carrot juice.. and the answer is no. Your skin will become yellowish, and I’m not kidding.The guy who started drinking a glass of carrot juice on empty stomach ended up with yellow skin - at the beginning, his palms started to change their color (the picture below represents a manifestation of diabetes mellitus but the effect with carrots juice was the same) and after a couple more weeks, his facial complexion was yellow/orange.Source: Open-i Biomedical Image Search Engine- Open-iThese changes took about 2 months, so if I were you, I would certainly choose another way to whiten my skin. By the way, I’m a bit surprised other comments suggest trying this…The reason that skin changes its’ color in case of ‘carrot overdose’ is that the organism starts developing Carotenemia(which is a condition leading to yellowish pigmentation of the skin in a combination with increased beta-carotene levels in the blood. Usually, the condition develops due to prolonged and excessive consumption of carotene-rich foods, such as carrots.If you do some more research, you can find other methods, which won’t have side effects on the skin - for instance, check these rice facial masks (which are clinically proven to promote lighter skin) or buy some skin lightening product.Hope I was of some help!Best of luck and don’t overdo with carrots!

What's the best way to consume Ashwagandha powder that doesn’t dissolve properly in liquids and has a horrible taste? Is there a way to make some sort of snacks that I could keep handy?

I love ashwaganda. The adaptogen effects of the herb have helped me and my husband both quite a bit over the years.My favorite way to store and use ashwaganda is by stirring the powder into a jar of honey. Then, I add that honey to tea, coffee, or just eat it off the spoon!I'll also combine it with powdered ginger & turmeric in the honey and use it for chai. Oh, and if you add a LOT of powder to the honey, you can roll it up in little balls and let them dry and make little candy lozenges to carry around with you in a candy tin or similar. I hope that helps! I've used capsules too, but the honey is much more pleasant.
