Apple Banana Strawberry Smoothie/Shake

ApplebananaStrawberrymilkshake

Apples are a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C. Most of the apple's fiber

is contained in its skin, as is the majority of its quercitin. Since peeling results in

the loss of apples' flavonoids and most of its valuable fiber, choose organically grown

apples whenever possible. Bananas are one of our best sources of potassium, an essential

mineral for maintaining normal blood pressure and heart function. Strawberries are good

source of vitamin c and manganese, dietary fiber, iodine, potassium, folate, vitamin B5,

B6 and K.

Fruit smoothies not only fill you up but also recharge you, i can have this anytime

of the day and do not filter the juice and separate the fiber. Use a good quality

blender which will blend the pulp into a smooth paste and enjoy a cup full of

high fiber, nutritious smoothie.
