The Best Superfood Banana Berry Smoothie
Now, we know what you’re thinking…how can a banana berry smoothie taste this good and boost memory and focus?
We’re glad you asked 😊 …
Memory Boosting Blueberry
The primary ingredient in this banana berry smoothie recipe is the brain-boosting fruit, blueberry. Blueberries contain flavonoids that protect the brain from potential risks, like neurological disorders, caused by inflammation.
Blueberries also pack a TON of antioxidants for the brain. One, in particular, gallic acid, protects the brain from stress and potential degeneration. This vital antioxidant helps to get rid of toxic proteins that are commonly associated with age-related memory loss.
Studies done on blueberries have shown improvement in memory and focus, especially in older adults, so it would make sense why we call this superfood our brain health helmet.
For such a small fruit, blueberries sure do pack a serious punch! 👊🏼
Antioxidant-Rich Banana
We’ve also added bananas to this recipe so you can get even more antioxidants and your daily dose of fiber.Bananas contain almost no fat, are very low in calories and have been shown to make people feel fuller for longer periods of time.
Fun fact! Did you know that bananas are actually a type of berry? It’s true! This explains why bananas are rich in antioxidants, potassium, and why they are considered superfoods.
How To Make A Banana Berry Smoothie
This banana berry smoothie recipe is made perfect by its carefully thought out ingredients. By using a low-calorie liquid like almond milk, you don’t have to worry about filling up on unnecessary calories.
A perfect banana berry smoothie (like this one) uses Greek yogurt as the thickening agent rather than heavy creams, so you feel light all day without the heavy crash later. Greek yogurt is also packed with protein, 17 grams of protein in one cup to be exact! Protein helps to keep you feeling fuller for longer and prevents snacking between meals. This banana berry smoothie recipe will not only help your memory but will also help you reach your weight loss goals.
But that’s not all… we’ve boosted the health benefits and protein even more by adding SkinnyFit Super Youth. Super Youth is a multi-collagen peptide blend that replenishes your body with the collagen you lose over time. Collagen helps to reduce wrinkles, cellulite, and sagging skin and provides an extra boost of protein to help you take on the day.
