The editorial
Source: The Indian Express · 25 Jan 2026The new year brings in new beginnings, and if you are on the hunt for a healthy addition to your wellness routine, Soha Ali Khan has you covered. The actor has a New Year’s gift for us all—a morning drink to support gut health and immunity. Taking to Instagram, she shared functional nutritionist Nidhi Behl’s recipe for the juice.
“My Happy New Year present to you – as promised, here’s the green juice I have most mornings 💚This is not a detox juice — your liver already does that well enough, but think of this as gentle daily support: hydration, fibre, minerals, and anti-inflammatory foods that help the body do what it already knows how to do. Thank you @tinkerbehl for the recipe!” she mentioned in the caption of her Instagram post.
