Author Notes
Our bodies do a fantastic job of cleansing and detoxing by themselves, so the best thing we can do to feel healthier is to provide them with the right foods to enhance the process. Today’s recipe is one of my favorites. It has plenty of fiber, antioxidants and vitamins that our bodies need on a daily basis. Having this drink on busy days is especially helpful because it takes care of a lot of essentials, giving me a peace of mind. It is good for both digestive and heart health. I’m not doing any juicing here, which ensures that valuable fiber stays intact. I can’t emphasize enough how many benefits this smoothie has – feel free to check out the nutritionals before trying it to see!
Let’s have this delicious drink to kick-start the New Year to a happier, healthier us!
