OK, so you are looking at this saying what is she up to now, before you run away from this black goodness let me explain! It’s Fall, time to get into serious detox self-love mode post-summer craziness!
Activated Charcoal is a game changer in the detox world and has so many uses, everything from a teeth whitener to a water filter but before I go off on a tangent today we are focusing on its detox properties!
Activated charcoal helps to bind to toxins and chemicals and remove them from the body. Therefore, drinking it is a powerful way to help your body detox and remove these nasties in your bod and ITS COMPLETELY TASTELESS!! This smoothie has a super clean collagen protein and turmeric as an anti-inflammatory making it a perfect way to sneak CHARCOAL into your system!
*Please note because this packs a punch it’s recommended you have it in the afternoon so it doesn’t affect any medication, it can be used daily however give your body one rest day from it per week.
