What's in a Pineapple Mint Smoothie
Spinach: Chopping up spinach and putting it in a smoothie is the healthiest way to eat it, research suggests.
Pineapple: This popular fruit is packed with nutrients, antioxidants, and other helpful compounds, such as enzymes that can fight inflammation and disease.
Oranges: Navel oranges are one of the healthiest fruits you can eat, filled with Vitamin C, fiber, potassium, and low in calories.
Banana: Bananas are packed with potassium, magnesium, and vitamin C.
Mint Leaves: Mint has many health benefits, including promoting digestion and soothing stomach aches and it adds a refreshing touch to any smoothie.
Coconut water: There are some health benefits to drinking coconut water. It's an all-natural way to hydrate, cut sodium, and add potassium to diets.
Lemon & Lime juices; Lemons provide more vitamin C than limes — but both make a significant dietary contribution of this vitamin.
