Weekly Summer Smoothie Recipe for Healthy, Glowing Skin

This tropical smoothie is packed with vitamins and nutrients for glowing skin and a healthy body.
Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 Cups Fresh or Frozen Mango
  • 1 Cup Fresh or Frozen Strawberries
  • 1 Cup Frozen Pineapple
  • 1 Cup Kombucha (any flavor desired)
Directions: Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Use all frozen fruit for an frosty, refreshing treat!

Kombucha is fermented tea drink loaded with naturally occurring probiotics, vinegar, vitamins, enzymes, and acetic, gluconic and lactic acid. Kombucha tea helps with digestions, relieves inflammation, provides antioxidant support to prevent free radical damage, and supports collagen production for the prevention of fine lines and wrinkle and joint damage!

The fruit in this smoothie are all antioxidant powerhouses that are sure to give your skin an extra boost!

Pineapples are an excellent source of Vitamin C, Vitamin B, Manganese, the enzyme Bromelain, and dietary fiber. Eating pineapple provides antioxidant and immune support, and is an anti-inflammatory that can help reduce signs of aging and breakouts.

Strawberries are extremely high in vitamin C, folate, potassium, manganese, dietary fiber, magnesium biotin, and ellagic acid. Biotin is essential for strong, healthy skin, hair and nails, and ellagic acid protects elastin fibers from sagging, for firmer skin!

Mangoes are high in vitamin A which supports health skin function and cellular turn over, for clear and bright looking skin. Mango is a natural source of quercetin, isoquercitrin, astragalin, fisetin, gallic acid and methylgallat, and enzymes that have been found to protect the body against certain cancers.
