A woman has shared her simple recipe for a drink she claims helps people reverse their age, aids weight loss and gives you glowing skin. Better yet, Carmen Batres said her concoction only requires one ingredient.
Carmen said incorporating the drink into her diet every day has completely changed her life. As one example, the health-conscious woman said her beverage took her skin tone from pale to glowing. The brunette woman is known for her health and diet-related content as she loves working out at the gym and sharing what she eats. The drink is another example of this - and she said she’s reversed her ageing.
"I changed my pale complexion to this golden glow with carrot juice. It's definitely changed my life," she said in a video on TikTok. She shared that carrot juice contains nutrients that can improve skin, hair, nails, and overall wellness. "The carrot juice has a lot of vitamins, mamacita," she said. "Vitamin A combats everything to do with ageing. That skin, hair, nails, collagen production. Vitamin C, it combats cancer cells."
She added: "It has vitamin K. It's going to help you with your weight loss journey, and it's gonna help clean you out of parasites." At the time of writing the video has been viewed more than 164,000 times, and many people have shared their thoughts in the comment section.
"Damn the first picture is how I feel my skin looks... it's pale/ brown dull. I want to glow again. I’m trying this!!!" one person wrote. "That is called carotenemia! Happened to me and scared me lol," said another. A third added: "Girl I started doing the carrot juice and even my period symptoms have completely disappeared. I haven't had any pain for the past three months." When someone asked how Carmen’s energy levels were after incorporating the drink into her diet, she said: "I definitely have a lot more energy and my mood, for the most part, is always high."
