FOOD & NUTRITION
Celinda’s Meal Replacement/ Post-Workout Smoothie Serves 1
INGREDIENTS Spinach – a handful Frozen Fruit – ½ cup You can use any berry such as strawberries, blueberries, blackberries or any fruit such as pineapple, mango, etc. I highly recommend frozen fruit as it provides a much nicer & creamier texture. Ice – a handful Ginger Root – 2 slices Ginger root has antioxidants and other nutrients that may help prevent or treat arthritis, inflammation, and various infections. Ginger may also reduce the risk of diabetes, cancer and other health problems. Chia seed - 2 tbsp Despite their small size, chia seeds are full of nutrients, including Omega-3 fatty acids, iron, calcium and antioxidants. 18 SPRING 2023
Chia seeds have a mild, nutty flavor and can be a good addition to a balanced diet. Chia seeds may help in reducing appetite and weight, lowering triglycerides and improving blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes. Flaxseed (ground) - 1 Tbs One serving of flaxseed provides a good amount of protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids.
