If healthy digestion is a top priority for you, you're in good company at mbg. While it's well-known that a diet rich in fiber-filled fruits and vegetables is a great start for maintaining regularity, sometimes you need a bit more help.

For those mornings when it's tough to get enough fiber, or if you're just seeking additional gut support, consider trying this digestion-friendly smoothie from Danielle Brown (known as @healthygirlkitchen on Instagram).

Starting with a base of coconut water, this fiber-rich green juice not only provides essential nutrients but also helps keep you hydrated.

To make this green drink even more nutritious, add a scoop of mbg's organic greens detox+. This supplement includes prebiotic fiber, digestive enzymes, probiotics, and an impressive range of organic fruits and vegetables like kelp, spirulina, kale, broccoli, carrots, beets, and various berries.

Even the healthiest digestive systems could use a little support now and again—so give this bevvy a try.
