SPLENDID SMOOTHIE FOR FLAWLESS BEAUTY....

21/8/2015

Feeling good comes with eating well, one of the new crazes lately is fruit and veg smoothies.
I have put together an extremely healthy smoothie recipe with massive health benefits, after all of my research I think that I finally have the right mix of ingredients.


Here's what you will need for this magical recipe:
Picture

Firstly you are going to want a banana. Bananas include a variety of different vitamins and minerals, including protein, vitamin C, vitamin B6 and more.
They also really help to sustain your blood pressure and are high in potassium and low in salt!

Peel and break your banana into four then simply place it into the blender, but don't blend yet, we've only just got started!

Now it's time for those all important strawberries, loved by many because of their sweet original taste, and known as a great health source.
Classed as a 'Super Food' strawberries are packed with antioxidants and really help to boost immunity.
Picture
Stick four strawberries straight in with the banana, no need to chop of the green bits (they don't hurt)...

Blueberries are not very tasteful, but they are certainly high in vitamin C, a one-cup serving of blueberry contains 24% of your daily recommended vitamin C intake.

Pop roughly 25 blueberries into the blender.

Honeydew melon is very sweet and juicy, it's also very effective in containing good blood pressure levels, honeydew contains both vitamin C and copper, they promote healthy skin by aiding collagen production and tissue repair.

Use a quarter of Honeydew melon and cut it up into slices, then pop it into the blender.

Spinach is widely known for muscular development, thanks to Pop-eye. But they also have many nutrients, and are very low calorie.

Grab a handful and pop it straight into the blender.

Cucumber... What can I say... It's packed with vitamin B, hydrates the body and helps to fight three cancers.
So what are you waiting for, bung it straight into that blender!

Chop up around a Quarter.

Finally we have, da da da da... Drum-roll please, MILK!
Milk is very high in calcium, helping to keep our bones nice and strong, it gives the smoothie a nice creamy touch and helps the smoothie to liquidize easier.
Picture
Pour around 1/4 of a pint into the blender.

So were all set to blend, now watch your smoothie transform from this:

To this:

Now your ready to pour it straight into a glass, drink up and wait for the magic to happen.
If you repeat this recipe and have a little bit of smoothie everyday you will definitely start to see a visible difference in the appearance of your skin and the way you feel.

So, what's your favorite smoothie blend, leave your answers in the comments so I can try them out too!
