Do you know how sugar really affects the body? Sugar isn't just a diabetic problem. When we have excess processed sugar in the body, the blood can't eliminate it, so; it stays there! This extra sugar in the blood causes inflammation that the body has to try to repair. Inflammation over time harms the liver, leading to the above dis-eases, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, leaky gut, and other metabolic diseases. High glycemic foods are also the number one way to put on weight.
That's why we recommend a bi-yearly elimination diet and Detox program to give the body a break from inflammatory foods like grains and sugar. And, yes! You can eat healthily and feel satisfied on a detox. This smoothie is the perfect example of a decadent detox-friendly drink.
