I came across this interesting article where Dr Mercola DO, ACN (mercola.com) picks out one top choice as the best fruit to use in smoothies. Highly adaptable, mildly sweet, and provides a lovely thick consistency to smoothies. Also, its rich in health-enhancing nutrients – B vitamins, fiber, and folic acid.

He includes a delicious variation of his well-known Avocado Super Smoothie recipe – this time from one of his readers…

Some people tend to drink only one type of smoothie all the time, and while it might seem healthy and convenient, I would advise you to switch up your smoothie ingredients regularly instead so you can get a wide variety of nutrients in your diet.

I highly recommend this smoothie recipe because it truly a packs a nutritional wallop. Not only do you get healthy monounsaturated fats from avocado, but also vitamin C and flavonoids from lemon and pineapple, which can combat inflammation. The latter also contains fiber, and bromelain, an enzyme that is found to have cancer-fighting benefits.
