14 Best Ingredients for Detox Smoothies
12. Apple Cider Vinegar
Small studies show ACV may:
- Improve insulin sensitivity
- Support blood sugar control
But it does not cure acid reflux and may worsen it in some individuals.
Always dilute. Undiluted vinegar can damage tooth enamel and irritate the esophagus.
13. Aloe Vera
Aloe latex has strong laxative effects — sometimes dangerously so.
The FDA previously required removal of certain aloe laxatives due to safety concerns.
Use only food-grade aloe juice designed for ingestion.
