Watermelon-Carrot juice is so refreshing. Since watermelons are in season right now, we are taking advantage and juicing them (and eating them) as much as we can.
Watermelon is very cleansing for the whole body. It is especially beneficial for the kidneys + it's known to help break up kidney stones and help prevent them from occurring. Watermelon is full of antioxidants and is high in vitamin A (beta-carotene) and vitamin C. It is also very hydrating and refreshing.
Carrots are one of the richest sources of vitamin A due to its concentration in beta-carotene. It is also high in other vitamins and minerals. When juiced, it has a very sweet taste and goes well with almost any juicing combination.
