The key is to use all FRESH fruit. Be sure wash it first (get my produce wash recipe here), chop it into a big bowl, snitch a few pieces and smile at all the BEAUTIFUL colors!
Fruit is something we should all be consuming in our diet on a regular basis! There are so many options to choose from and each one has unique nutritional contents that nourish our bodies.
A few health benefits:
- Kiwis: extremely high in Vitamin C.
- Bananas: great source of potassium, which is used to maintain fluid and electrolyte balance in our bodies.
- Blueberries: high antioxidant content, low sugar fruit and full of fiber which helps keep us “regular”.
- Pineapples: reduces inflammation and helps fight cancer.
- Grapes: can help with high blood pressure.
- Strawberries: boosts brain function and immunity.
