I was waking up with muscle cramps every night. I really needed more energy to keep up with the kids, home office, pets, husband, house… I started drinking these detox smoothies for a whole week because I was too stressed out as my nanny left and did not how I was going to be able to go ahead with so mucho over my shoulders.
and, yes. Having too many cheese sticks and Diet Pepsi for emotional eating, and stress, had consequences and there I was SUPER BLOATED and having cramps during my sleep. I started with the celery papaya juice to try to reduce inflammation and it started to work.
I continued and the swollen was little by little going away. My digestions were amazing and the best part I was full of energy. Now, I do not start my day without one of these detox smoothies. They really have changed my life for good and I am totally loyal to them even on Saturdays and Sundays.

WHEN AND HOW TO DRINK SMOOTHIES
These special smoothies for constipation, detox, oxygen, vitamins, minerals, potassium have to be taken first thing in the morning.
It is important to have these smoothies with an empty stomach. First thing i do when I wake up is to be grateful to God for a new day and right after I run to the kitchen make the smoothie of the day and then I take a shower, get ready for work, make breakfast and then eat.
You need to leave between 15 to 20 minutes after having the smoothie to eat something That way you give enough time to digestion and intestine to start the process and separate the nutrients and make that extra fiber work before other food come the get in the middle of the process.
