  1. Personally, there's nothing like a cold smoothie kickstart the morning on a refreshing note and keep hunger at bay, especially whenever oversleeping happens. Besides being easy to prepare and of course delicious, studies show that consuming smoothies in the morning can provide almost all of our daily dose of vitamins and nutrients that provide various health benefits and even make us energetic throughout the day. These smoothies are also packed with healthy fats, fibre, proteins, fruits, vegetables, and nuts that we need to power our day, all of which makes them healthy for morning consumption.
  2. 1. Beet smoothie
  3. Beet smoothie is creamy and delicious. This smoothie has low calories and is a great source of nutrients such as folate, vitamin C, potassium, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that can support digestive health, aid weight loss, boost stamina, support liver health and boost our energy. It can be made with beet, blueberries, pineapple and almond milk.
  4. 2. Kale smoothie
  5. This smoothie can be made with kale, banana, almond milk, peanut butter and honey which are contained with fibre, protein, vitamin C, vitamin K, calcium, healthy fats, potassium and antioxidants. These nutrients can improve bone strength, digestive health, support immunity, lower cholesterol and the risk of chronic diseases.
  6. 3. Oatmeal smoothie
  7. Oatmeal smoothies can be made easy with banana, cinnamon, peanut butter, and blueberries. This combination is loaded with important vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that can help to maintain good cholesterol levels, improve cognitive skills, skin health and cardiovascular strength, relieve symptoms of anxiety and depression.
  8. 4. Apple and great grains shake
  9. This smoothie can be made by blending apple, almonds, spinach, cinnamon, milk, and water, all of which can smooth brain functions, aid strong bone, improve eyesight and immunity, reduce blood pressure and the risk of joint pain, heart disease, diabetes, and even cancer. This is because they contain vitamin K, healthy monosaturated fats, fibres, omega-3 fats, and minerals that have synergistic effects to reduce inflammation.
  10. 5. Mint smoothie
  11. Mint smoothie ingredients include avocado, fresh mint leaves, spinach, banana, and milk(almond) that can help to relieve indigestion and child symptoms, improve brain function, treat bad breath, protect vision and improve skin health. This is because of the nutrients found in the ingredients.
  12. 6. Mango smoothie
  13. This smoothie can be made by combining spinach (which is rich in iron and vitamin K), mango (packed with vitamin C and antioxidants), and banana (which contains potassium and fibre) with almond milk can boost calcium, support heart and eye health, improve digestive health, and prevent diabetes as well as maintaining nerves and muscles function.
  14. Without a doubt, drinking smoothies regularly can increase your sugar intake, thus, we recommend that you make your smoothie at home to minimise the amount of sugar reaching your smoothie.
