Blend and Go: A Healthy Smoothie Recipe for Busy People

If you’re a health-conscious person, you can probably see the trend of smoothies in the wellness world and how it is frequently marketed as a health food. These beverages (or sometimes snacks) are usually portable, easy-to-make, wholesome and modifiable based on your taste preference.

Smoothies are creamy and thick beverages or snacks (in cases of smoothie bowls) blended from pureed fruits, vegetables, yogurts, seeds, and milk (dairy or non-dairy). To add more health benefits, some are adding herbs, and nutritional supplements such as protein powders, powdered vitamin or mineral supplements.

Many people are becoming more and more creative in incorporating healthy foods in their diet, and one of those ways is by having smoothies as their morning or afternoon snack. Scientific studies have shown that consumption of these pureed fruits and vegetables provides a wide array of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants that may help to reduce inflammation, improve digestion, and help to lower the risk of chronic conditions like heart disease, osteoporosis, obesity, and age-related mental decline.
