Pear Cranberry & Pomegranate Smoothie

It’s bursting with natural sweetness, tartness, and a wealth of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants from the fruits and juice, making it a refreshing and nutritious choice for any time of day.

Health Benefits

Cranberries – antioxidant-rich, supporting urinary tract health and providing vitamin C for immunity. Their anti-inflammatory properties may benefit heart health, making them a nutritious addition to your diet.

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.

Pear – nutritious fruit with good source of fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants. The fiber aids in digestion and may help regulate blood sugar levels. It contains vitamin C, potassium, and other nutrients that support heart health. The fruit’s antioxidants contribute to overall well-being by combating oxidative stress.

Pomegranates – packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber, promoting heart health, immune function, and digestion. They offer a refreshing burst of flavor with potential anti-cancer benefits.

Can I replace the pomegranate juice?

Most definitely! I recommend water or orange juice. Non-dairy milk could be good and creamy but I have never tried.

Add any protein powder and/or superfoods you like!
