This is a sweet and delicious juice which has one unusual ingredient, sweet potato. Don't be afraid to use it though, you won't detect any potato taste. The juice is packed with vitamin C and A (Beta Carotene) which can help fight against macular degeneration. The juice is also packed with antioxidants and is very delicious. This one will definitely give you the recommended daily amount of vitamin C!
