By Adam, Terence, and Hannon

Who’s it for?Great for people on the go that don’t have enough time

for breakfast

People who have bad or developing bad cholesterol

Good for growing kids (vitamins and minerals)

People who want immunity during the flu season (due to antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins)

Any Sugars? Yes, but it’s all naturalWhat if I told you that there are no added sugars in this smoothie? I’m sure many of you would decide that it’s plain and has no taste. WRONG…

This smoothie is made from fresh fruit, so, the sugar in the fruits are enough to make it sweet

BlueberriesThe Good

Low in saturated fat, bad cholesterol, and sodium

Full of dietary fibers, good cholesterol, antioxidants, vitamin C, vitamin K, and Manganese

The juice of a blueberry treats coughs, colds, and the antioxidant (called Anthocyanin) kills intestinal bacteria

The Antioxidant also neutralizes “free radicals” that can cause cancer and other age related diseases

from sugarsWhen it is frozen or

canned, it loses almost all of its vitamin C content

Eating too many can get you sick
