  • subheading: Health Benefits of Purple Power Detox Smoothie:
  • The Purple Power Detox Smoothie has everything and then some when it comes to a detox. The combination of the two most popular berries - strawberries and blueberries - are a flavorful start to this cleansing concoction. Blueberries are truly a detox super food. They are jam-packed with fiber, vitamin K, manganese, and vitamin C, and loaded with antioxidants, which give them a bluish color. These antioxidants are crucial for maintaining a healthy liver - the body’s major detox organ. Strawberries add significant doses of vitamin C, manganese, fiber, and folate, as well as more antioxidants to help fight diseases and keep the body primed to cleanse. Flaxseed oil magnifies the drink’s cleansing power by adding more fiber, which helps the gut eliminate excess toxins.
