Eat snacks consisting of organic fruits and vegetables, raw nuts and seeds, hummus, raw coconut, soups, natural nut butters and nut milks or additional green smoothies. For dinner, think full-bodied salads & Buddha bowls to include avocados, nuts, seeds, etc and stick to a clean olive oil + vinegar dressing (ideally cider vinegar with the mother). Gluten-free grains and seeds are a great option like quinoa, brown rice, wild rice, buckwheat, millet or amaranth.

Remember, portions should be light and add a pinch of high quality sea salt whenever possible.

Water is ideal if possible...it's the only calorie free, sugar free, money free liquid option for your smoothie. If that works with your taste, then go for it! If not, try one of these other great options while watching your net carbs:

• Unsweetened almond milk - same consistency as milk, but half the calories. It's also naturally lactose-free so it keeps your heart happy! Around 1.4 grams of carbs per cup.
• Coconut water - 9g of carbs per cup, so be careful, though it does bring a slew of other benefits including electrolytes, potassium, fiber and sodium. (see coconut milk below for a lower-carb option)
• Other low-carb milks including:
• Macadamia milk: 1 gram of carbs/cup
• Hemp milk: 1.3 grams of carbs/cup
• Soy milk: 1.6 grams of carbs/cup
• Almond milk: 1.99 grams of carbs/cup
• Flax milk: 2 grams of carbs/cup
• Coconut milk: 3.38 grams of carbs/cup
• Oat milk: 9 grams of carbs/cup

When making my own low carb smoothies at home, I prefer coconut milk (full fat coconut milk) or unsweetened almond milk. I feel the small trade-off in total carbs (and net carbs) is well worth the improvement in taste and consistency.

Plant-based liquids ONLY for the Cleanse. You'll need 12-14 fl oz liquid per pouch for blending. Below are our recommendations for the blends currently in our 7 Day Cleanse.

GLOW - diluted coconut water, unsweetened plant-based milks, diluted fruit juice or water
DETOX - diluted coconut water, diluted fruit juice or water
STRENGTH - unsweetened plant-based milks
KETO GREEN - unsweetened plant-based milks

GREEN SMOOTHIE CLEANSE PREP

At least two days prior to beginning your cleanse, we recommend beginning the elimination process by cutting out caffeine, alcohol, sugar, dairy, soy, gluten, red meat and processed foods as this will help to reduce headaches and cravings. It’s also important to ease yourself out of the cleansing process the same way you started, with good wholesome nutritious foods and lots of H2O.

The great news is that there's really no order in which to drink our smoothies during your 7-Day Smoothie Cleanse. You'll have (4) blends to choose from and you can interchange them however you wish. One consideration: STRENGTH has higher levels of plant-based protein and healthy fats so you may want to drink this blend for lunch on a day when you're feeling a little extra hungry. Enjoy your cleanse as you take the next step toward a cleaner, healthier you and don't forget to share on social + leave a review!

NOTE: Our ready-to-blend superfood smoothies are stored in the freezer so please make sure you have ample space.

Drink Up

Plan to drink at least 8 glasses of water daily. We suggest starting each morning with a warm lemon water to kickstart the system. This will help cleanse the liver, aid in toxin removal and help to flush fat from the body. Drink it on an empty stomach thirty minutes prior to consuming your breakfast smoothie. {Filtered water + fresh lemon juice + cayenne} You may also drink as many caffeine-free herbal teas as you’d like throughout the 7-day process.

Exercise

If this is your first cleanse we suggest avoiding heavy cardio and focus on light exercise such as walking, non-heated yoga or light circuit training. If you’re a cleansing guru then you should be able to carry on with your normal routine.

Detox Bath

A detox bath is one of the easiest healing therapies we can do to assist our body's natural detoxification system. A good detox soak will help draw out unwanted toxins during your cleanse while also leaving your skin healthy, vibrant and rejuvenated.

Dry Brush

Dry brushing the body daily helps to eliminate toxins by stimulating the lymphatic system and increasing circulation that invites oxygen to your skin and muscles. The massaging of your connective tissue will keep your skin looking tight and toned and will remove dead skin cells. Always remember to brush towards the heart with a good quality, natural bristle body brush.

Massage/Sauna/Steam Room

If you can squeeze in any of the above during your cleanse it will benefit the detoxification process greatly. Also consider a massage or 15-30 minutes in a sauna or steam room, all top notch aids in helping to cleanse the body.

Sleep

Getting plenty of rest will aid your body’s repairing process. Aim for at least 7-8 hours a night.

Take a Probiotic

A daily probiotic will be highly beneficial during your cleanse to replenish and rebuild the good flora in your intestines.
