Blueberry-Cabbage Detox Smoothie

BLUEBERRY-CABBAGE DETOX SMOOTHIE-1

This easy citrus-berry detox smoothie is full of vitamin C, anti-inflammatory flavonoids (such as anthocyanins), and detoxification compounds (such as sulforaphane from the cabbage). Drinking this smoothie for a few days in a row can begin to dampen down inflammation, giving you more energy and clarity! If you are needing a cleansing smoothie for breakfast, add a few scoops of amino acid powder, collagen peptides, or your favorite protein powder to make this smoothie into a meal. 

Ingredients
¼ medium heads red cabbage
2 cups frozen blueberries
1 large oranges peeled
1 lemons peeled
2 inches fresh ginger peeled
2 cups water

This has a delicious flavor, but we didn't enjoy the lemon and orange segment and blueberry skin pieces in it. So I think next time we will be juicing these together in the juicer instead.

This was mild and tasty. I enjoyed the ginger and lemon flavors and didn't sense cabbage at all.

This was so delicious and energizing! The cabbage helps balance the citrus. I used a mix of frozen blueberries and blackberries from a leftover bag in the freezer and added some marine collagen powder. Will be making this regularly!
