Nutrient dense greens mixed with enzyme rich fruits and micro algae create a super blend in this smoothie for glowing skin. A big boost of antioxidants and nutrients are released from plant cells when they are blended into a creamy consistency. By releasing these “trapped” nutrients within the cell walls, your body can absorb a much larger number of antioxidants, thus contributing to glowing skin.
In addition, the greens in combination with apple and digestive enzyme rich pineapple allow your body to release old toxins and waste that have been collecting and creating sludge in your digestive track. By drinking these green smoothies regularly, your digestive system will become much more efficient at shedding waste, allowing you to shed pounds, feel less bloated and ultimately have glowing skin.
