Detox for Healthy Digestion

I have a massive roster of fruits and veg that I go back and forth on from week to week. It helps me eat a variety of different healthy foods so that my body can enjoy all the benefits of the vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants available, and so that my gut has just the right flora and fauna it needs to fight off any illness that comes my way. Gut health doesn’t just happen overnight, however. It begins with detoxifying all of the unwanted junk from your body.

Apples are an excellent food to use to flush out these toxins, and that’s why it’s an essential ingredient in our high-fiber kale and apple detox smoothie. (1) The other essential ingredient, is of course, kale. Kale is a superfood that I often use in smoothie recipes because it’s low in calories, high in fiber, and has no fat. One cup of kale has 5 grams of fiber including a wide spectrum of vitamins and minerals.

The rest of your smoothie ingredients include spinach, celery, cucumber, lemon juice, and honey. All of these ingredients further contribute to the antioxidant properties of this detox smoothie, which help reduce the effects of oxidative stress on the body. Oxidative stress has been linked to chronic diseases and the development of cancer, which is why it’s important that you regularly detox and fortify your body with nutritious foods to help combat its negative effects.
