Benefits of Smoothies


My personal favorite in my daily routine. 

There are six categories of fruits that contain a variety of vitamins and minerals--citrus, berries, tropical, drupes, pomes and melons.
Citrus contain good amounts of vitamin C, potassium and folate.
The berry category contain particular antioxidants that decrease inflammation and phytonutrients that help fight disease.
Tropical fruits  are sources of vitamin C, potassium, folate and manganese, which keeps your bones, blood sugar, thyroid gland and nerves healthy.
Common drupes fruits are cherries, apricots, peaches and plums. They provide beta carotene, potassium and vitamin C

You can add to your smoothies water, law-fat mil or law-fat yogurt. I usually don't add anything and drink pure fruits but that might not work for everybody. 


Reasons to drink Smoothies
*Get your daily allowance of fruits and vegetables
*Quick and easy
*Easier weight loss
*Detox
*Build muscle and improve athletic performance
*Strengthen your immune system
*Deeper sleep
*Energy
Smoothies are also good for children and they are always more happy to drink fruits in a juice than eat raw.
