Hello, my dear friend!
Today I want to share smoothie, juice and smoothie bowl recipes for your detox journey which are easy to prepare, healthy, nutritious and of course so delicious.
Before jumping to our recipes it`s a good idea to remember when is the best time to drink smoothies and juices for easy digestion.
Liquids leave the stomach faster because there is less to break down. Smoothies and juices take around 20 to 40 minutes to digest. It`s recommended to wait at least 40 min to have a meal after you drink your juice or smoothie to support your digestive health.
If it doesn`t have too much sugar amount which comes from fruit such as lemon, it is not going to increase your blood sugar levels. So beginning the day with a glass of juice or smoothie is better to purify the blood from metabolic waste and change blood pH from acid to alkaline
