Banana Berry Spice Smoothie

A sweet, creamy smoothie, like the recipe I have to share with you today, makes for the perfect breakfast. It's delicious, energizing, refreshing, and full of nutrients to get you through your morning.

This smoothie is particularly special because of its very high antioxidant content. The raspberries and strawberries, like all berries, contain a huge amount of anti-aging antioxidants. Then add a touch of two of the most healing spices available to us and you boost the flavor and healing properties even further. Cinnamon has the highest antioxidant strength of all food sources and is several hundreds more potent than any fruit or vegetable!

You can even add wild blueberries for a twist on this recipe and even more of the critical antioxidants we need for our health. It's really just an added bonus that this smoothie tastes so wonderful!

Enjoy this smoothie for breakfast, lunch or a snack. It's also a perfect addition to the 28 Day Cleanse from my book Medical Medium.
