This recipe is all about your stomach, which is the first major part of the digestive system. Your stomach has a lot of work cut out for it, including protein digestion. By eliminating the heavy proteins from your diet while detoxing you give your body a rest and reduce acidity. By providing protein-digesting enzymes, along with a nice alkalizing effect this smoothie is great for soothing the stomach and improving digestion. You can add a little ginger or fresh mint to pep it up and support digestion even more.
