Have you been hibernating all winter-- maybe all year-- indulging in comfort foods?
Just like you spring clean your house, you also need to spring clean your body.
In spring, our bodies naturally sense an opportunity for a fresh, clean start—a chance to cleanse ourselves of any accumulated toxins and to rejuvenate.
Eating in-season foods will provide your body with more nutrients, help your body adjust to the changing climate, and help your body defend itself against typical illnesses and allergies in spring.
This succulent detox salad recipe below is jam-packed with nutrients, minerals, and detoxifying benefits that your whole body will love!
