This simple smoothie is made with just a few ingredients, but it’s chocka full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants plus other nutritious super foods thanks to a boost from Vital Greens powder. Vital Greens is the perfect way to supercharge your smoothie, as it contains over 76 nutrients essential for optimal health, energy and vitality. Don’t forget to check out our competition to win your own 300g tub of Vital Greens over here.
Another key feature of this smoothie is the yummy taste and nutrients provided by kiwi fruit. Kiwifruit are a very nutrient dense fruit. That means you get more vitamins and minerals per gram, and per calorie, of kiwifruit than many other fruits. They’re a rich source of Vitamin C, folate and potassium. They also provide a source of Vitamin E which is quite rare for a low fat food.
According to Zespri, recent studies have shown kiwifruit to be highly effective at helping the immune system. Kiwifruit can help ward off the effects of stress, inflammation and attack from bacteria and viruses.
Here’s how to make a smoothie for one:
1 banana
2 kiwifruit, peeled
2 teaspoons Vital Greens Powder1 cup of water; or coconut water.
Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Drink and enjoy the benefits!
