power smoothie.

I found this smoothie recipe in the book 10 Day Detox Diet one of my teacher-friends was reading and tweaked it to my likings. Her and I are following Dr. Hyman's 10 day detox plan (because I've been eating like a race horse). Basically, the detox consists of no caffiene, sugar, and grains, exercise daily, and journaling daily about your progress. It's fairly tasty if you're used to the ingredients and eating pretty clean!
