Protect your body from the outside world with this blueberry hit. With a sneaky hint of beetroot, this smoothie provides immune-strengthening ingredients like vitamin C and antioxidants that help your body fight off illness. Beetroot is a unique source of betaine, a nutrient that helps protects cells, proteins and enzymes from environmental stress. It's also known to help fight inflammation and boost performance.
Kickstart your immune system with this Nutribullet smoothie - it's full of vitamins from the beetroot, blueberries, grapes and spinach. They're not only good for you, but this colourful smoothie is also a treat to look at and enjoy too. It's fruity and sweet and has no need for additional sweetners. If you need something a little extra, you can add a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey, but the pure pomegranate juice should be enough to add a little sweetness.
Enjoy this smoothie for breakfast, or as a part of an afternoon snack when you need some perking up. Avoid naughty snacks that are high in fat and salts, and instead opt for a lovely, healthy smoothie that you can make in minutes and tastes really fab.
