1-2 Teaspoons Honey
2 Slices Fresh Ginger Root
1/4 Teaspoon Ground Cardamom
1/4 Teaspoon Turmeric

The Apple-Cinnamon Detox...
Water
1 Apple (Thinly Sliced)

The Green Banana...
4 Bananas
1 Cup Spinach
3 Cups Cold Water
1 Cup Ice
...the riper the bananas the less bitter this drink will be
...placing the water, ice, and greens in the blender first and blending those on their own before adding the bananas eliminates the papery texture of the greens
...the potassium in a banana helps to eliminate fatigue, and bananas also contain vitamins B1, B2, B3, and B6 which all help to convert food into energy
...the phosphorus in bananas also helps to reduce tiredness and increase endurance
Enjoy!
