Do you find yourself feeling guilty around the holiday season? The holidays are notorious for surrounding us with sugary treats and temptations. However, we can easily combat these with my Festive Spice Holiday Smoothie Recipe.
And while there is nothing wrong with the occasional indulgence, let’s try to keep our spirits up by making healthier replacements. When we can, these replacements can still be just as yummy!
What’s in this ‘Festive’ smoothie?
You’ll be drinking in your spinach, which is an amazing beauty food. Packed with minerals, protein, fiber, and vitamins. It’s such a great food for glowing skin and health.
Next, you’ll be gaining antioxidant and anti-inflammatory health benefits from the cranberries, as well as from the delicious and juicy raspberries.
Inflammation contributes to everything from cancer to accelerated aging of the skin to pretty much every disease and general ailment you can think of. So these pretty little berries are extra important in our recipe.
Let’s not forget about the amazing banana and its total fiber content. Containing pectins, which is a unique and complicated type of fiber. Mother Nature is so incredibly amazing with all the countless details she has created, is she not?!
Bananas are one of my favorites due to their digestive importance. As you probably know by now, optimizing digestion is a key Beauty Detox principle.
