We have been making this shake/smoothie for a couple of months now. We also have been telling people about it and how it makes us feel better when we have it in the morning to start our day. The ingredients work together to help clean, boost and provide amazing health benefits.

Avocado provides good fat. One avocado has about 4 grams of protein, more than any other fruit. Choose a heavy fruit. Leave unripen on counter for a few days and ripe avocados in fridge for four or five days.
Spinach is a nutritional power house. With providing protection and so many benefits to the entire body process.
Lemon Juice has antibacterial properties and cleanses the system and purify the blood.
Mint is great for easing insomnia, upset stomachs and nervous tension. It aides in breaking down fat by stimulating bile flow.
