Here are some smoothies ideas I made when I did my 21 day cleanse detox. It help me lose 13lbs and helped with some of my stomach issues I was having. During quarantine I was eating a lot of unhealthy food. After dealing with many days of being bloated, I decide it was time to reset my system and detox. That's when I decided to do some research and came across using smoothies to detox. I am a vegan and like to keep to natural ingredients, so smoothies were a prefect way to achieve that. I made three to four smoothies a day for 21 days. I kept my workouts to moderate lifting as I wasn't consuming enough calories a day. After the 21 days I felt better then ever. Every few months I detox for a week just to clean my system of all toxins. Let me know if you decide to detox and what you think. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to email me.
