Detox Smoothie for Optimal Recovery
This is one of my favorite recipes for any time I am feeling really sluggish or have had time off from my regular routine. The Supergreens powder I use is from Ancient Nutrition. There are numerous brands on the market you can choose from. Look for the "alkalizing" language to make sure you are getting the right kind. Moringa powder is from a plant and has excellent antioxidant properties.
