06 Jan Wondering what’s all the hype about Green Smoothies

Perhaps you are thinking of being healthier in 2022 with a Green Smoothie 

Unless you have been living under a rock, it would be difficult to miss the signboards announcing that Green Smoothies now available at many shops and cafes
As with every food trend that happens, Green Smoothies here to stay 

Here are 3 Reasons why a Green Smoothie is good for you.
1. Green Smoothies increases your daily fruit and vegetable intake 
We live busy lives that more than often causes us to forget about how important fruits and vegetables are during the day. By starting your day with a green smoothie, you are already consuming a lot of fruits and vegetables, thus upping your daily intake of these essential food types.

2. Green Smoothies provide whole food nutrition 
Unlike a Green Juice which removes all the fibre in fruits and vegetables, a Green Smoothie is still a whole food, complete with fiber and all nutrients. Fiber is important and promotes bowel regularity, lowers cholesterol and lowers the risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes.

3. Green Smoothies can help promote weight loss naturally. 
Green smoothies are rich in many vitamins and minerals that support the human body’s overall health, but they can also be an excellent addition to a weight loss regimen. This is because Green Smoothies contain fibre which helps gives you the filling of fullness so you’re likely to eat less and stay satisfied longer.

So if you are thinking about having a Green Smoothie for breakfast to kickstart your 2022 into a healthy you, give it a go today. But remember, although Green Smoothies are healthy for you, it shouldn’t be the only food you consume, a healthy lifestyle requires a balanced diet of proteins and carbohydrates as well as exercise.
