These delicious and healthy blends make it easy to eat healthy on days you’re in a rush or don’t feel like an entire meal. They include a variety of whole fruits, milk, immune-boosting, probiotic-containing yoghurt, along with other nutritious ingredients. Though I’d never recommend a diet that consists of only smoothies – these thirst busters are an ideal way to start your day or end a workout/busy day at work.
