When you think about improving your diet and nutrition, your mind most often turns to the food that you put on your plate. You may contemplate the foods that can help you lose weight, or those that simply boost your wellness and wellbeing. What many people overlook, however, is the incredible power that is held by what you drink. If you drink sugary beverages all day, you are likely to gain (or maintain) weight. If what you drink is full of chemicals and additives, your wellness is bound to suffer.
Instead, why not make what you drink a vital part of your daily health routine, making sure that you only ingest pure, natural drinks in the form of smoothies and juices?
One such smoothie is sometimes referred to as the ‘aloe vera splash’ due to the fact that, when making green smoothies, lots of people like to add a dash of aloe vera gel. Aloe vera has numerous health benefits.
You can also make smoothies from any number of common fruits, which are packed with antioxidants. An apple and blueberry fruit smoothie, for example, is absolutely packed full of vitamins and can give your health a huge boost. In addition, the taste of sweet blueberries, creaminess of blueberry yoghurt and tart contrast of a green apple can be an absolute taste sensation.
One that you might not have thought of is the blueberry and red cabbage smoothie. It may sound disgusting but hear us out – this drink actually tastes great! By combining the blueberries with the red cabbage, a sweet and interesting flavour is produced, which not only fills up your tummy but helps to boost your immune system and brain power.
Finally, if winter colds and coughs are getting you down, try a ginger smoothie, made with fresh ginger, lemon, orange and carrot for a great way to boost your immune system and energise your body.
