Our bodies can easily get overloaded with toxins from the environment…

…not to mention processed foods and alcohol, and it’s a great idea to support our internal systems with foods that have cleansing, detoxifying benefits as well as boosting our immune system.

Join me in the kitchen today and I’ll share a delicious Green Smoothie recipe that will cleanse your body from the inside out, and share the benefits of these wonderful foods.

Some of the benefits of detoxifying greens include

• clean, glowing skin
• decreased inflammation (which can be so helpful in alleviating joint pain and stiffness)
• improved energy and mood
• a healthy immune system that will keep you from getting sick

Recipe:

Yield: 1 serving
You will need: blender, measuring cups and spoons, knife, cutting board

• 3 T Hemp Seeds
• 2 cups mixed Greens (I’m using Swiss Chard and Green Leafy Kale)
• 1 stalk Celery
• 1/4 – 1/2 cup Parsley
• 4 sprigs fresh peppermint
• 1 apple
• 1 kiwi
• water – amount varies. Start with enough to go about halfway up your ingredients. Try blending it. Add more if it’s not smooth enough.
