Did you know…
Cilantro is known, not only for its for a variety of nutrients, but its detoxifying affects. It has the ability to bind to heavy metals and remove them from our bodies. Toxic heavy metals usually enter our body in small amounts through food + water. It is near impossible to completely avoid ingesting toxic metals, so it is important to incorporate foods that eliminate them. Cilantro’s ability to remove toxic metals and its great flavor will wake-up your smoothie! Pair me with avocado, beet, coconut, cucumber, ginger, lemon, lime, mango or pineapple.

Do you have a favorite smoothie recipe? Let me know, I would LOVE to hear from you!
