I promised in December that I will be experimenting with different smoothie flavors this year and here I am! I see huge numbers of people around getting sick and coughing, and Chinese New Year’s break is coming, so we’d better make sure to stay healthy and enjoy it to the full!
This smoothie has a nice light green color and very light consistency. It is great both to eat and also, just like previously -I also applied a little bit as a face mask. Ingredients: 1 AVOCADO – avocado should be in your daily diet because of its abundant nutrients : it will protect your heart, eyes, help your skin stay smooth and young looking.
A piece of ALOE VERA FLESH – it works like a tonic for IMMUNE SYSTEM, and helps fight all kinds of diseases
a piece of SOURSOP ( known also as GUANABANA ) – now this is probably the most delicious fruit I have eaten so far in my life : sweet, juicy and super healthy. It is not cheap, as one middle size fruit costs about 25 RMB.BUT! It is known as CANCER CURE – it attacks cancer without harming good cells in your body. It also ENHANCES IIMUNE SYSTEM, LOWERS BLOOD PRESSURE, REDUCES STRESS AND DEPRESSION. It is also a BROAD SPECTRUM ANTIMICROBIAL AGENT. When you look at all those benefits now, 25 RMB is not that much after all
1 tablespoon of COCONUT OIL – coconut oil is just good for EVERYTHING. Just like you drink water every day, you should remember to use and eat coconut oil on DAILY BASIS.
A little bit of COCONUT MILK – actually I use it sparingly, and sometimes exchange for yoghurt, because it is quite fatty. But still has a lot of benefits: calms nerves, strengthens bones, fights virus and infections, regulates blood sugar, lowers cholesterol, moisturizes skin and relieves arthritis.
One tip regarding SOURSOP – make sure it is soft, but not too soft when you choose one. If it is hard, it will not be juicy and not tasty at all, and too soft will not appeal to you either. Just ask your local fruit vendors, like Lady Avocado in Shanghai – they are always happy to help you select the good quality fruit and veggies!:)
