Nourishing Mango Passion Fruit Smoothie
This Nourishing Mango Passion Fruit Smoothie is just as revitalizing as it is delicious. Mango and passion fruit are packed with Vitamin C and Vitamin A, the former of which boosts our immunity and the latter of which plays a role in eye and skin health. This powerful, fruity duo also boasts generous amounts of potassium, magnesium, and iron along with small amounts of selenium (a tricky-to-find yet necessary mineral), zinc, and calcium. Plus, both fruits offer oodles of dietary fiber, which aids digestion and encourages colon detoxification. Not too shabby for a seemingly simple fruit smoothie, eh?
