Rhubarb has been used as a natural laxative for thousands of years to prevent the build up of aging toxins that can make you feel sluggish and your skin look dull.
As part of a high-fiber diet, rhubard will help bowel function by toning the muscle of the digestive tract wall. Rhubarb has also been used to promote skin health and maintain a youthful appearance by cleaning your detoxification pathways from the inside. It is known to remove excess fats from the bloodstream, helping the circulation deliver revitalizing oxygen and nutrients to the cells. Rhubarb is a good source fo vitamin K, needed for youthful bone health.
Ingredients
2 cups of rhubarb (cut into 1-inch pieces)

2-3 Tbsps of good-quality honey or pure maple syrup
2 cups organic strawberries (sliced)
Preparation
1. Pur the rhubarb in a saucepan, add the orange juice and honey or maple syrup, and bring to a boil, stirring gently. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
