Bianca Healthy Yummy Treats
What You'll Need:
- Your favorite fruits/Veggies and favorite organic fruit/veggie juices
- 1/2 cup of ice ( up to 2 cups depending on serving size)
- Organic Honey
- Optional- Milk to get that rich smoothing taste
- And a Blender ( I have a GNC live well blender )
Not only are these fruit/veggie smoothies delicious
they are a healthy treat as well and very easy to make.
Here is some facts by Pat Crocker to prove
that fruit and veggie smoothies are great for you and your body.
"The Health Benefits of Smoothies"
Unlike juices, smoothies retain all the fiber of whole raw fruits and vegetables. Eating fiber is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to prevent disease because it helps the body to eliminate waste materials and deadly toxins. Benefits of smoothies include the following:
- Improved digestion and elimination: Fiber is the one key factor in the body’s ability to eliminate waste on a regular basis.
- Weight loss: When used as part of a low-fat, low-sugar diet, vegetable smoothies provide pure nutrients to your cells and bulk from the fiber, which makes you feel full.
- Healthy substitute for empty-calorie drinks and snacks: Smoothies’ fiber and other slow-digesting ingredients (like nuts, seeds, or yogurt) allow them to stay with you longer and satisfy you more than coffee, soda, or other drinks.
- Meal replacement: Smoothies are high-nutrient options. If you add small amounts of protein and even some grain to a vegetable smoothie, you can build that drink into a satisfying meal replacement.
