DR. OZ 3 DAY DETOX LUNCH SMOOTHIE DRINK
This green smoothie drink by Dr. Oz. is the lunch drink used in his 3 day detox cleanse.
Dr. Oz says that as your bloating begins to subside while using this lunch drink, it will begin to replenish your body by packing in 5 essential greens.
We love this detox smoothie (and it’s refreshing flavor that tastes a bit like sweet grass). Why?
Because it gives us essential omega’s AND keeps us from getting hungry. It also includes good-for-you healthy fats from the coconut oil.
Furthermore, make sure to keep the skin on the cucumber if it’s organic, it’s the healthiest part which we learned from Dr. Oz years ago!
Although just be sure to clean it with a special wash to remove pesticides and such if you don’t buy an organic cucumber.
We recommend making fresh almond milk for this 3 day detox, as it will give you much needed healthy fats, calories, and nutrition over store bought brands.
Note that you do not need a high powered blender to participate in Dr. Oz 3 Day Detox Cleanse!
You can use these tips on making green smoothies in a regular blender.

Nutrition
HEALTH BENEFITS OF COCONUT OIL AND CUCUMBERS
Coconut oil (fats) have particular fats called medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). It’s been shown that breaking down these particular healthy fats in your liver results in efficient burning of energy.
Further, it increases the body’s metabolism by removing stress on the pancreas; thereby burning up more energy and helping obese and overweight people reduce their body weight.
Additionally, Cucumbers are good for the skin. The silica in the peel helps reduce wrinkles and boost collagen. Buy them unwaxed if possible. (Source: Dr. Oz)
Thanks for sharing! This sounds amazing!
You’re welcome! (:
Hi I just started the 3 day detox… Hope it goes well. Will you loose waight with tg
He detox?
Hello Telana! Some people have lost weight on the Dr. Oz 3 day detox yes but all results vary. I can tell you that for our 7 day Whole Foods and Juice Blender Cleanse, on average participants lose 5-10 pounds.
Can you use a regular blender?
Absolutely! The best part about this recipe is you can use any power blender to make it. Enjoy!
Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed this!
No Problem! Please let me know if you have any questions that I can help answer. Thanks!
Is this all you eat the entire day, for three days?
You do the breakfast smoothie, lunch smoothie and then the dinner smoothie for 3 whole days to detox 🙂 This one is the lunch smoothie.
What do you suggest that I substitute for Coconut oil and almond milk? I do not like neither.
Hey DMJ! You can substitute coconut oil with flax oil or hemp oil. Almond milk can be substitute with any kind of milk substitute you enjoy, or you can try making your own! Here are our DIY milk substitute recipes you can make in a blender.
This is an awesome recipe. I will try it on my next Bio Cleanse Detox. You’re only supposed to have juice on the strongest method, but can also do smoothies if you want to bend it a bit….
Nice!! We love smoothies because of all the fiber it provides that juice typically doesn’t 🙂 Let us know how your Bio Cleanse Detox goes! XOXO
what is the favorite drink ?
I love so many but here’s a couple of my favorites. 🙂 Acai cancer fighting smoothie and pistachio ice cream smoothie
I have searched all over for the serving size of the lunch drink. This drink is almost 32 ounces in size. Are we supposed to drink the entire drink at lunchtime?
Hey Peggy! Yes 32 ounces is the servings since since it’s your meal. If it’s tough to drink it all at once, just drink as much as you can and then try to the rest later maybe as a snack or just when you’re hungry. 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
Hi! I have a question, for the 3 day detox, do you have to drink this one for three days for morning, lunch, and dinner? Or how does it work? Thanks!
Hey Kimberly! There’s a different smoothie for each morning, lunch and dinner. All the links to each is there on the top portion of the page. 🙂 Let us know how it goes!
I am on antibiotics and but already has plans to start this detox. Will I still be able to do it?
That’s a really good question Tameka. I’m not sure why antibiotics and a smoothie diet wouldn’t work together, however it’s best to consult your healthcare professional before moving forward. Please keep us posted on your profess and what he/she says! HAPPY BLENDING!
Does the blendtec break down the celery strings? I’m in the market for a new blender and I’m wondering if you can taste/feel the texture of the celery. 🙂
Hey Nicole! Yes! The Blendtec and Vitamix both can break down that stringy celery! That’s one of the things we hated most when trying to make a green smoothie with a regular blender. They couldn’t handle celery, kale, carrots, etc and turn it into a juice. You just want to use enough liquid and time to PULVERIZE! 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
