What is your perfect smoothie?
Would you prefer the green fresh smoothie, milkshake or protein shake? You can make all of these in a healthy version, that will boost your health and your consumption of fruits and veg!
The reason that I love to make smoothies so much is that you have lots of options!
You can choose different flavours every day and get a significant amount of available vitamins and minerals, fibre, proteins and healthy fats in a tasty drink, which can be considered a meal.
TRY EVERY MORNING A DIFFERENT SMOOTHIE
I like to drink my smoothie with green leaves and fruits.
Adding some extra nutrition boost with superfoods like Goji Berries, Acerola powder, Oats and Chia seeds.
Greens are important for a healthy digestive system; they contain fibre, beta carotene and chlorophyll.
It is easy!
