The recipe comes from Lindsay Cotter, a nutritionist and fitness professional, with a passion for sport nutrition and gluten-free diets.
Lindsay reminds us that the kiwi fruit comes from New Zealand and soft, ripe kiwis are popular there. She explains ...
… Kiwi fruit can also help your digestion! Meaning, it can help things get moving along. Um, no wonder it’s a “regular” breakfast fruit consumption. Pun intended, haha.
… KIWI fruit can really help those with IBS. It has both proteolytic enzymes and prebiotic carbohydrate fibers which aid in digestion.
[And she suggests] … Give your digestion a little TLC with this Kiwi Super Green Smoothie! Super ingredients that are paleo and vegan friendly, healthy, and nourishing. A green smoothie that does a body good. Simply delicious and refreshing!
