Green Smoothie

Drinking a green smoothie for breakfast is an excellent way of including one or two servings of green vegetables in your nutrition, without really noticing it. Vegetables slip by unnoticed when mixed with fruits and a liquid such as almond milk or yogurt.

Green vegetables are extremely rich in chlorophyll, are incredibly alkalinizing, and will help protect your body against diseases. They are also filled with a large quantity of nutrients, vitamins and minerals, and fiber, in addition to their cancer-fighting properties.

A generous serving of green vegetables = THE best thing for your body!
