Nutritional Benefits

Smoothies are a nutritious way to boost fiber intake, aiding digestion and satiety, while facilitating the absorption of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They improve nutrient absorption and increase fruit and vegetable consumption, supporting overall health.

Bananas – rich in potassium, essential for heart health and blood pressure regulation. They provide quick energy from natural sugars, contain dietary fiber for digestion, and offer essential vitamins like vitamin C and vitamin B6.

Peanut butter – a nutritious source of protein, healthy fats, and essential nutrients like vitamin E and magnesium. It supports heart health, aids in weight management, and provides sustained energy. Additionally, it contains antioxidants and may contribute to lowering the risk of certain chronic diseases.

Soy milk – a plant-based alternative to dairy milk, provides a good source of protein, essential amino acids, and various vitamins and minerals. Soy milk has cardiovascular and bone health benefits. The beverage is also low in saturated fat and may help lower cholesterol levels, promoting heart health.

Cocoa – is rich in antioxidants which may contribute to heart health by reducing blood pressure and improving vascular function. It contains minerals like iron, magnesium, and copper, supporting various bodily functions. Cocoa may enhance mood by promoting the release of serotonin and endorphins.

Feel free to add any protein powder and/or superfoods.
