Cabbage Cucumber Detox Smoothie
Now that the hectic holiday season is over, it's time to focus on detoxifying our bodies. A great way to do this is by incorporating healthy juices or smoothies into our diet. One of my favorite detox smoothies includes a combination of cucumber, lime, mint, cabbage, and spinach.
Cucumber and mint provide a refreshing taste while lime adds a touch of acidity. Cabbage, with its mild flavor and high fiber content, will keep you feeling full for up to three hours. Spinach, known for its high protein and mineral content, makes this smoothie a powerhouse of nutrition. Plus, it has the added benefit of being a natural diuretic. This juice is designed to cleanse and does not contain any added sugar or sweeteners.
