The detox smoothie simply cleanses and flushes all the toxins from the body and also making a habit of having smoothies during the day can help maintain the weight.

A mix of fruits and veggies in a smoothie is a good way to start your day to detox in a healthy manner.

Cons of Weight loss smoothie diet

The smoothies are basically loaded with nutrients but are generally low in calories. A low-calorie diet can cause other side effects to the body.

Low calories in the smoothie can try to cut down the body fat and reduce some pounds.

The disadvantage is that it can cause lots of fatigue, lack of energy if the calories burn quickly and if one is in need of more calories to carry on the rest of the daily activities.

The above problem may lead to other health issues such as blood sugar levels may go down, increased hunger can cause us to binge on unhealthy food leading to weight gain too.

Also, smoothie diets can deprive us of the necessary nutrients such as proteins and therefore, try to take them from other food sources in order to stay healthy.

Therefore, always have a healthy balanced diet along with weight loss smoothie diet plans to stay fit and healthy.
