Green Detox Smoothie
This refreshing smoothie gets things moving within your digestive system to help you beat bloat. Cinnamon and ginger increase circulation, while parsley acts as a mild diuretic to help reduce excess water retention. The hemp hearts and ground flax seeds are not only a great source of complete protein and healthy fiber, but they also feed your good gut bacteria. As an added bonus, the balanced nutrition in this smoothie makes it an easy meal on the go. Serves 2
6 oz. coconut water 2 Tbs. unsweetened shaved coconut 1 handful spinach leaves 1 small frozen banana 1 Tbs. cacao powder 1 Tbs. raw almond butter 1 Tbs. flax seeds 1 tsp. maca powder Dash of cinnamon Pinch of sea salt 3-4 ice cubes *optional: 1 tsp. honey or 3 Medjool dates (pitted; optional)
