Notes
Benefits:
Wild blueberries are considered to be one of the healthiest fruits. They are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and flavonoids, and low in sugar. Studies show they can improve brain function, prevent heart diseases, protect from urinary tract infections, and are great for people with diabetes. Also check out our publications on type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Other ingredients, like ginger and açai powder, have proven anti-inflammatory properties, making this smoothie a real medicine for your body. Recommendations for doshas Vata: Cold drinks are not a good choice for Vata. Use fresh fruits instead of frozen ones. Room temperature is better to keep Vata energy in balance, instead of aggravating it. Pitta: This drink has a cooling effect, which balances Pitta dosha. Kapha: Reduce the banana amount or replace it with mango. Do you know what a dosha is? Find out your dosha here.
