**Simple sippables**

Forget everything you thought you knew about a liquid detox. These easy, 1-step smoothies are bursting with good health, and you definitely won’t have to plug your nose while drinking. We asked 6 of our favorite smoothie gurus what their favorite, most flavorful flushes were, and the results are in. The verdict? Nourishing yourself with neutralizing, detoxifying, antioxidant-packed drinks is even tastier than it looks. Grab your blender and get ready for the smoothie detox of your life!

We’ve collected our healthiest, most delicious meals in The Prevention Cookbook: 101 Recipes You Can’t Live Without.

**The Super Green**

Powerful detox action masquerades as another delicious shake from Prevention’s Lori Powell (it’s pictured here with the Berry Breakfast Smoothie.)
