Green Goodness Smoothie

Recipe written by: Kelsey Perusse
Health Benefits
- Cilantro: Anti-bacterial, Toxic Metal Cleaning.
- Spirulina: Algae, high in protein and iron. Removes toxins and boosts immunity.
- Kale: Acid makes iron in kale bioavailable (thus the lime in the smoothie). The coconut oil is needed because carotenoids need to be paired with fat to be released. Kale contains more vitamin C then an orange.
- Lime: High in vitamin C, helps to balance the alkalinity of the greens and improves taste.
