21 Day Juice Fast Journey - Day 9

Day 9 of the juice fast journey features another delicious smoothie from Drink Green ~~~~~~~ STRAWBERRY PINEAPPLE GREEN SMOOTHIE (Baby spinach, kale, carrots, strawberries, pineapple and banana).




Fresh pineapple contains protein, fiber, sugars, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, zinc, copper, manganese, selenium,  B vitamins, beta carotene, vitamin A, vitamin E, and vitamin K. There is plenty of vitamin C in pineapple and its juice is a source of an enzyme called bromelain. Bromelain has some anti-inflammatory properties and after a meal, drinking fresh pineapple juice may help with digestion of the protein component of the meal.

Don't forget the water!!!

Yours in health,
Dr. Velonda
