Healthy Smoothie 101 - What’s Good About Kale? 

Kale is the star of our healthy smoothie recipe, so let’s take a moment and get to know more about it!

So what’s awesome about it and why should you consider eating kale each day?

It’s nutritious

Kale Plant

Kale is rich in fiber, potassium, iron, antioxidants, vitamin K, calcium, and several other nutrients.

In fact, it’s one of the healthiest foods on the planet, so it’s only fair that you feed your body with this highly nutritious green veggie.

It’s packed with vitamins and minerals, and gives your body loads of benefits including asthma prevention, regulating blood pressure levels, reducing the risk of cancer, and boosting your immune system.

Other fascinating facts about kale include:

  • ​Protects against diabetes because of its high fiber and antioxidant levels.
  • ​Improves digestion and heart health.
  • ​Prevents free radical damage and oxidative stress
  • ​Reduces autonomic neuropathy
  • ​mproves bone health
  • Keeps your hair and skin healthy 

Kale is indeed an amazing source of nutrients essential to your well-being and overall health.

​Versatile Veggie

Fresh Kale Salad

Do you prefer drinking your veggies?

Or would you rather gobble them up as salads or side dishes?

Either way, kale is great for these things.

Just a cup of fresh, chopped kale offers you as much as 0.6 grams of fiber. Consuming cooked kale, however, increases the fiber content, giving you 2.6 grams.

Or you can eat it raw to keep all the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants locked in.

Add in cooked kale to your main dishes.

Steam it, lightly stir-fry it, add it to soups… These are just some of the ways to incorporate a serving of kale to your daily meals. Since it doesn’t have a strong taste, you can easily add it into your dishes and not mess up the desired flavor of your recipes.

Be sure to enjoy a serving or more of kale each day to supply your body with all the essential nutrients and health benefits it needs.

How to Make a Healthy Smoothie Recipe Using Kale 

Great options for a green kale smoothie recipe include bananas, apples, pineapples.

Adding in fresh fruit juice is another excellent way to make a fine-tasting green smoothie with kale.

If you want to up the protein content of your smoothie, throw in some seeds such as flaxseed, chia seed, etc.

There are so many ways to customize your kale smoothie and make it so irresistibly good. In fact, don’t be surprised if it turns out even better than your favorite soda.

Well, it IS way better than soda, anyway, as it’s bursting with nutrition and health benefits.
