Nutritional values

This smoothie has only 1 gram of fat but 75% of your daily recommended amount of vitamin C. This boosts your immune system and cell metabolism, arming yourself against stress and fatigue and helping the connective tissue to remain firm.

You can consume this power drink with different types of berries throughout the summer. After strawberries go out of season, you can use raspberries, currants, blueberries or blackberries. The more small seeds the berries have, the more fiber they contain.
