1 kale leaf
1 small banana
1 Clementine (peeled)

1 cup water
3 pinch of cayenne

cayenne has a long history of medical and therapeutic uses, according to Michael Castleman, author of “The Healing Herbs.” It contains a chemical compound called capsaicin, which may help lower cholesterol and remove fatty deposits from your arteries and blood vessels, improving blood circulation. Talk to your doctor before using cayenne to enhance blood circulation.

Ginger improves blood circulation.
The chemical compounds in fresh ginger root seem to help lower low-density lipoproteins, which are the “bad” cholesterol components that cause lipid deposits in your arteries, restricting blood flow and placing strain on your heart muscle. Enhanced blood flow improves the delivery of vitamins, minerals and oxygen to your body’s cells, improving overall health and energy, as well as reducing blood pressure. It may also decrease your risk of cholesterol-related heart disease.
