Your Super-flavonoid Soup & Smoothie Diet!
O
ur nutrition team worked with JJ Smith, mega-selling author of 10-Day Green Smoothie Cleanse and Green Smoothies for Life, to create this special flavonoid-loaded version of her approach for you to try. Our menus not only serve up smoothies but also include puréed soups for times when you want a warm, savory option. While using this plan, be sure to drink plenty of water. Add other ultra-low-cal extras (spices, vinegar, zero-cal sweetener) in moderation. As always, get a doctor’s okay to try any new plan.
