The Tale of Green Detox Smoothie
Story updated
Green smoothies emerged from the raw food and health movements of the 1990s and 2000s, popularized by figures like Victoria Boutenko, who promoted blending leafy greens with fruit for easy nutrient intake. 'Detox' framing reflects marketing trends rather than a specific medical claim, but the format caught on widely.
