Are there any detox benefits?

Yes, the Keto-Friendly Green Smoothie offers several detox benefits due to its combination of nutrient-dense, hydrating, and antioxidant-rich ingredients.

It supports detoxification by boosting liver function (with ingredients like spinach and lemon juice), improving hydration (from cucumber and almond milk), and providing antioxidants (found in spinach and lemon juice) to combat free radicals. The high fiber content (from chia seeds and flaxseeds) aids digestion and waste elimination while alkalizing ingredients (like cucumber and lemon juice) help balance pH levels. This nutrient-packed smoothie efficiently enhances your body’s natural detox processes.

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk for a creamier texture)
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves (or kale, stems removed)
  • 1/2 small avocado (ripe, peeled and pitted)
  • 1/4 cup cucumber (peeled and diced)
  • 1/4 cup frozen unsweetened berries (optional for flavor)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp powdered stevia or monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)
  • 3-4 ice cubes (optional for thickness)
INSTRUCTIONS
    Preparation:
  1. Add all the ingredients into a blender, starting with the almond milk and spinach, to ensure smooth blending.

  2. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Add more almond milk to reach your desired consistency if the smoothie is too thick.

  3. Sprinkle in the stevia or monk fruit sweetener, adjusting the amount to your preferred sweetness level.

  4. Add ice cubes for a thicker texture, if desired.

  5. Blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds or until smooth and creamy.

  6. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.
