This green smoothie is cooling, zesty with the perfect balance between tart and naturally sweet. The mint adds a freshness that compliments a warm or cozy day.

The best foods for cleansing the liver and reversing insulin resistance are low calorie yet nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables such as kale, cucumber, celery, apple, mango, and mint in this fatty liver detox smoothie for weight loss.

Half a cup of grapefruit juice is used as the liquid to help blend this green smoothie recipe. Grapefruit juice slows down phase 1 liver detox, which can be a good thing for people with slow phase 2 detoxification pathways and a sluggish gallbladder.

Benefits of Sunflower lecithin for weight loss

When it comes to detoxing the liver for weight loss, it is essential to open up the phase 3 detoxification pathway, which is why I added 1 tsp of sunflower lecithin powder to this liver detox smoothie.

Sunflower lecithin helps to promote bile flow from a sluggish gallbladder. After toxins are conjugated through one of the liver detox pathways, the toxins then get dumped into the bile.

It is therefore crucial that bile flow out of the liver and gallbladder is optimal so that toxins can get out of the liver.

Phosphatidylcholine found in sunflower lecithin helps to transport fats out of the liver as well. And reversing a fatty liver is crucial for weight loss. There are many health benefits of sunflower lecithin.

Additional benefits of sunflower lecithin include:

  • Improves digestion
  • Reduces cholesterol
  • Prevents fatty liver
  • Improves brain function

Benefits of this green smoothie for weight loss

The natural fibers found in this green smoothie recipe for weight loss keep the toxins bound in the intestines. Eating a high fiber diet also promotes healthy bowel movements for detoxification.

Kale is one of the most nutritious superfoods high in chlorophyll for liver detox.

The addition of hemp seeds provides extra plant-based protein and the essential fatty acids, including the omega-three fats that are great for weight loss. Hemp seeds are also high in albumin to help transport fats and hormones.

Cucumber is cooling and hydrating for the body.

Celery is an excellent source of potassium, which is an electrolyte required for optimal hydration in the body. It is low in calories and full of fiber to help you feel satiated.

And as the saying goes, an apple a day keeps the doctor away!

    I’m not supposed to have grapefruit with cholesterol medicine. Is there a good substitute?

    Thank you
