Berry Vanilla Matcha Smoothie
Summer and vacation time is around the corner! So, we created this Yum Matcha Berry Vanilla Smoothie as the perfect start to your summer mornings! This irresistibly delicious smoothie is full of antioxidants and will give you a boost of energy!
Antioxidants and Fiber
Over the last couple years, antioxidants have been a big deal. But do we even know what they are?
“Antioxidants are molecules that fight free radicals in your body.”
But this doesn’t mean free radicals are entirely bad. With proper levels of free radicals, your immune system uses them to fight off infections. So, only when your free radical levels are much higher than your antioxidant levels does it become a problem. You can read more about free radicals here!
Anyways, the berries in this smoothie are full of antioxidants and fiber! They’re sweet little fruits that are amazing for our bodies!
You can read all about why fiber is great in our sister company’s, Naturlax, blog here!
Energy Boosting
Yes, you could just drink your usual cup of coffee for your caffeine fix. But that instant energy boost eventually leads to jitters and a crash. However, the caffeine found in matcha doesn’t make you feel this way! If you want to read more about starting your mornings with Matcha, click here!
