Guava-Ginger Smoothie

Guava is a healing snacking between meals is necessary for active weight loss. Eating less and foods that spike energy levels without actually providing any nutrients can be more damaging to the results we require rather than beneficial. Guavas are rich in vitamins and minerals which provide the right energy boost, and the dietary fiber keeps the stomach full for a long time.




Ginger helps support your efforts to lose weight, but it's unrealistic to expect major weight loss without making other lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise. 




Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup guava, seeds removed
  • 1 cup pineapple, cubed
  • 1 banana, peeled
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 8 ounces of filtered water

Instructions


lace the lid on the blender (or cover the cup if using a handheld blender), and then press your blender’s appropriate blending button to combine the mixture. Your smoothie is ready when all ingredients are thoroughly mixed together. If you are using cubed or crushed ice, use the ice crusher setting on your blender to chop and blend the ice into the smoothie.
