BLUE BERRIES AND POMEGRANATE
                               
KALE,FLAX SEEDS AND BANANA

MAPLE SYRUP

BLEND ALL THE INGREDIENTS TOGETHER

 NUTRITIONAL VALUES:

1    1.   We can use any kind of berries in dark color like blueberries, Black berries and Raspberries. But Blueberries is super immune booster fruit. If the above berries are not available, instead of these we can use gooseberries and Strawberries.
2.       Pomegranate is good source of iron and it has higher anti-oxidant than any other fruits.
3.       Flax seed is the healthiest food which has primary omega-3 fatty acids.
4.       Kale is known as nutritional power house which has almost all important minerals and vitamins. In India if it is not available you can use any type of spinach without bitter taste.
5.       Banana is good source of potassium and vitamin c and b6. Mainly used here to increase the taste and thickness of smoothie.
6.       Honey is well known for more health benefits. It is known as power food with essential minerals, antibacterial and anti-fungal property. Here I have used maple syrup to increase the taste of the smoothie. You can also use palm sugar for kids. Actually the smoothie has its mild sweetness from the fruits.  For grownups if you concern about calories you can avoid adding sweet.
7.       And if you want you can add more health values by adding the ingredients as per your wish like yogurt.
