Heavenly Nutrition Consultants demo carrot‑ginger juice shot and Fresh Stop mobile market at forum
Summary
A nutrition demonstration by Heavenly Nutrition Consultants showed a 70% carrot/20% apple/10% ginger juice‑shot recipe, encouraged leaving peels on produce, and announced Fresh Stop mobile market samples for attendees to take home ingredients.
Heavenly Nutrition Consultants presented a live demonstration of a carrot‑ginger juice shot at the Mayor Demings Women’s History Month Forum, explaining health and cost considerations for making the shots at home.
Presenters said vegetable juice provides concentrated vitamins (notably vitamins A and C), can support gut health and hydration, and advised leaving peels on produce to retain nutrients. They recommended a 70% carrot/20% apple/10% ginger ratio for the juice shot, suggested straining blended produce through a fine mesh, and advised that homemade shots can be cheaper than retail options.
Organizers and presenters directed attendees to the Fresh Stop mobile market outside the facility, where guests could pick up carrots, ginger and apples to make juice shots at home and receive recipe cards. Presenters demonstrated how to puree ginger and recommended adjusting ginger amounts for children or those sensitive to spice. Samples of juice shots were distributed to attendees during the session.
The demonstration included practical tips on equipment (juicer or high‑speed blender), labeling advice when buying bottled products and sample cost comparisons to common retailers; presenters emphasized portion control and using whole‑food ingredients.
