Kick off your summer morning with a naturally sweet and refreshing smoothie that’s loaded with health supporting ingredients.
A protein shake is a great nutritional start to any day. Almond milk is a tasty, nutritious milk alternative that has many important health benefits. It is low in calories and sugar and high in calcium, vitamin E and vitamin D. Matcha green tea has been found to have significant health supportive and anti-cancer properties.
Add strawberries which are known to be a superfood – they are nutrient rich and packed with antioxidants (like vitamin-C). Throw in spinach which is full of vitamins, minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants and phytonutrients. Top it off with some mint (also an antioxidant powerhouse) and you’ve got a delicious way to fight cancer in the kitchen!
Give the blender a spin and try this vegan, gluten-free smoothie.
