You may feel the same about breakfast; you may need something energy charging, satisfying, and filled with nutrition. A breakfast smoothie is a great way to suit those needs. Blueberries, kiwi, banana & ginger smoothie is such a quick and delicious way to start the day. Here is what I used for my breakfast smoothie and its benefits.
- Blueberries – Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, potassium and vitamin C. In addition to boosting immunity, blueberries help to prevent diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.
- Kiwi – The kiwi is high in Vitamin C and dietary fibre with additional health benefits. This tart fruit can support heart health, digestive health, and immunity. The kiwi is a healthy choice of fruit and is rich in vitamins and antioxidants.
- Banana – Bananas contain nutrients that with blood sugar levels and can aid in improving gut health. Bananas also contain antioxidants and are great for helping you to feel fuller.
- Ginger – Ginger is excellent for digestion and can help to increase movement in the digestive tract. Ginger can also lower blood levels, ease period pains, arthritis symptoms and reduced cancer growth.
- Almond milk – Almond milk is lactose-free and great for lactose intolerance as an alternative to traditional dairy drinks and replacing animal milk. Almond milk is a source of magnesium, controlling blood sugar levels, and unsweetened almond milk is low in calories and carbs compared to animal milk. Almond milk is also full of Vitamin E, an antioxidant known to help your brain and lower the risk of cognitive diseases like Alzheimer’s Disease.
