Brk-Smoothie-02

This is another one of my favourite smoothie recipes. It is so easy to make and quite refreshing. You can also experiment with different greens if you like. Adding ginger to this recipe is a great anti-inflammatory powerhouse. Studies have shown that regular consumption of ginger may help to burn fat and balance glucose levels within the body.
