Who’s it for?Great for people on the go that don’t have enough time
for breakfast
People who have bad or developing bad cholesterol
Good for growing kids (vitamins and minerals)
People who want immunity during the flu season (due to antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins)
Any Sugars? Yes, but it’s all naturalWhat if I told you that there are no added sugars in this smoothie? I’m sure many of you would decide that it’s plain and has no taste. WRONG…
This smoothie is made from fresh fruit, so, the sugar in the fruits are enough to make it sweet
BlueberriesThe Good
Low in saturated fat, bad cholesterol, and sodium
Full of dietary fibers, good cholesterol, antioxidants, vitamin C, vitamin K, and Manganese
The juice of a blueberry treats coughs, colds, and the antioxidant (called Anthocyanin) kills intestinal bacteria
The Antioxidant also neutralizes “free radicals” that can cause cancer and other age related diseases
The BadLots of the calories are
from sugarsWhen it is frozen or
canned, it loses almost all of its vitamin C content
Eating too many can get you sick
Strawberries
The GoodVery good
antioxidant content1 cup gives you
140% of Vitamin CKeeps bad
cholesterol from harming your arteries
The Bad• Too many
strawberries can cause excessive diarrhea problems
BananasThe Good
Good source of potassium, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, and fiber
Helps lower blood pressure
Low in calories, fat, sodium
Good for stomach problems
The BadContains a lot of
starches (energy), so they can make you fat if you don’t burn them off
IceIn the recipe, the ice keeps the antioxidants,
minerals and vitamins from escapingIce is water, so, it contributes to your daily
need of waterChewing on ice, however, can damage your
teeth
