Berries and celery: what a great combo! Berries have high levels of antioxidants and phytochemicals, which are naturally occurring nutrients that help protect cells from damage, helping to fight cancer and other illnesses.
Celery is very rich in vitamin K, vitamin A, potassium, folate and vitamin C, and also provides a good amount of dietary fiber. Celery is also rich in electrolytes and has a cooling effect on the body, fighting inflammation. Celery also helps to clear the digestive system and boost cognitive function.
To round off this powerful combination, I’ve added flaxseed oil which is high in EFA (essential fatty acids) for its healing compounds and bee pollen which is rich in a range of vitamins, minerals and protein, making it a great natural energiser and digestion aid. Voila! Energiser Smoothie! Oh, and it tastes divine too. ☺
