Spiced Almond Milk Raspberry Coconut Shortcake Green Smoothie Green Smoothie Recipes Spiced Almond Milk This is the perfect little treat for the end of a cold day. The combination of almond milk and warming digestive spices balances your blood sugar and stabilizes your metabolism. The extra protein boost from the almond butter helps curb hunger pains. Serves 1 ingredients 1 cup almond milk, unsweetened 1⁄4 teaspoon cinnamon A pinch of ground ginger A pinch of cayenne pepper 2 teaspoons maple syrup 1 tablespoon almond butter directions 1. Combine all ingredients in a small pan. 2. Heat on the stove over medium heat until warm.* 3. Pour into a mug. *Pro tip: After heating the ingredients on the stove, pour the mixture into the blender and run it for about 30 seconds (leave a little hole in the lid for the steam to escape). This makes sure everything is mixed super well, and adds a bit of froth to make you feel like you just got served at your favorite coffee shop! Raspberry Coconut Shortcake Green Smoothie The deep red color of raspberries means that they are high in antioxidants which can help prevent cancer and other diseases. It’s also important to include lignans in your diet, and flaxseeds are an excellent source. Lignans may reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes. So drink up and reap the benefits of starting your day the healthiest way possible…with a delicious green smoothie. Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups spinach 1 cup coconut milk 1 cup coconut water 3 cups raspberries 1 Tablespoon ground flax seed 1 teaspoon vanilla extract OPTIONAL: garnish with coconut flakes, flax seed directions 1.

Ginger aids in digestion and has numerous anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. Two compounds found in high concentration in ginger, gingerol and shoga, may help the entire digestive tract to relief any discomfort from gas, constipation, diarrhea, and bloating. (Yep, I went there.) And now we come to turmeric, another natural liver detoxifier. We most often find it in its dried, ground form. It is a root similar to ginger that is common in Asia and Polynesia. It lends a gorgeous yellow color to curries, mustard, and other foods we consume on a normal basis. But adding in a little extra turmeric into your diet adds big benefits. The curcumin in turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory and has been used in traditional Eastern medicine for centuries to treat all kinds of maladies. Pineapple and mango add natural sweetness as well as fiber and loads of Vitamins A and C. Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups kale 2 cups coconut milk 2 cups pineapple 1 cup mango Juice of ½ lemon 1 Tablespoon fresh ginger ¼ to 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric, to taste directions 1. Blend kale and coconut milk until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Use at least one frozen fruit to make smoothie cold. Citrus Beet Cleanser Green Smoothie Detoxify with beets and beet greens as they team up with the liver to flush out the toxins. But that’s not all! Citrus also works to detoxify the body naturally. Happy cleansing! Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups beet greens or chard 1 cup water 2 oranges, peeled 1 small raw beet, peeled and diced Juice of ½ lemon directions 1. Blend beet greens, water, and oranges until smooth. 2. Add beet, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! Coconut Peach Green Smoothie The coconut milk makes this extra creamy and rich – almost like a peach milkshake. Adding an orange boosts up the Vitamin C level and adds an extra sweet-tart element that helps highlight the flavor of the fresh peaches. I can honestly say that this is one of my very favorites. Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups spinach 2 cups coconut milk 2 cups sliced peaches* 1 orange, peeled directions 1. Blend spinach and coconut milk until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Any variety of peaches or nectarines is fine. Other stone fruits like apricots, plums, and cherries can also be used if peaches aren’t available. *Use at least one frozen fruit to make it cold. Pineapple Mojito Green Smoothie Friends will keep coming back for more when you serve up this refreshingly sweet drink. This green smoothie recipe is a great way to introduce others to the world of kale! Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups kale 2 cups coconut water 3 cups pineapple ¼ cup fresh mint leaves Juice of 1 lime directions 1. Blend kale and coconut water until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Use frozen fruit to make smoothie cold. Pineapple Upside Down Cake Green Smoothie Did you know cherries are one of the top antioxidant-rich foods you can eat? They also contain 260 mg of potassium per one cup serving. Not to mention the calcium, Vitamin C, iron, and even protein. Pretty sweet! Bananas add more potassium, spinach adds more Vitamin A and iron, and pineapple is full of Vitamin C and bromelain. Try it and let us know how you liked it! Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups fresh spinach 2 cups almond milk, unsweetened 1 cup pineapple 1 cup cherries, pitted* 1 banana *Other fruit can be used, such as berries. directions 1. Blend spinach and almond milk until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Use at least one frozen fruit to make smoothie cold. Mango Melon Madness Green Smoothie Raise your hand if you can’t get enough watermelon this summer? (*raises hand*) Watermelon is a great way to naturally sweeten your green smoothie AND it adds a good dose of lycopene, Vitamins A and C, and dietary fiber into your day. Mangos give this smoothie a nice, silky texture and another boost of Vitamin A. Coconut water adds another sweet, hydrating element. And of course, the green element – spinach – is loaded with iron, vitamins and minerals. This is one refreshing, antioxidant packed green smoothie! Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups spinach 2 cups coconut water 1 ½ cups diced mango 1 ½ cups diced melon* *Any melon can be used. directions 1. Blend spinach and coconut water until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Use at least one frozen fruit to make smoothie cold. Cinnaberry-Rific Green Smoothie It’s hard for me to resist a smoothie full of berries. Berries are a popular smoothie ingredient because they pack a punch in the flavor and antioxidant department. I use a mix of frozen berries. (I buy them in bulk specifically for smoothies.) Any berry will work here— use your favorite! This yummy Cinnaberry-Rific Smoothie uses ingredients that have a low glycemic index, which is great if you’re watching your sugar intake. Cinnamon may even help lower blood glucose levels. Health benefits aside, I love this smoothie! It’s sweet with a little hint of cinnamon, and creamy from the almond milk. I totally dig it. Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups chard (any color) 2 cups almond milk 2 cups mixed berries 1 banana ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon directions 1. Blend chard and almond milk until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Use at least one frozen fruit to make smoothie cold. Strawberry Ginger Zinger Strawberries aren’t just delicious, they are also one of the healthiest foods you can eat (or drink). They are chockfull of antioxidants that provide cardiovascular benefits as well as having a positive effect on lowering blood sugar. Not to mention a serving of strawberries has more Vitamin C than an orange. Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties as well as aiding in digestion and helping the body naturally detoxify. It may also help alleviate pain – from arthritis to menstrual pain and more. Such a great thing to add into your daily green smoothie to give it some pep and up the nutrients even more. Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups almond milk 2 cups baby spinach 2 cups strawberries 1 banana 1 tablespoon grated ginger, to taste directions 1. Blend spinach and almond milk until smooth. 2. Add remaining ingredients, and blend until smooth. Enjoy! *Use at least one frozen fruit to make the green smoothie cold. *Any berry can be substituted here – blackberries are particularly nice. Don’t like ginger? You can leave it out or add another favorite spice, like cinnamon. Pumpkin Spice Green Smoothie Stock your own kitchen with some pumpkin cheer! Pumpkin, particularly the flesh of the pumpkin, is packed with fiber (great for digestion and feeling fuller longer), vitamin A (great for your eyes), and iron (great for healthy blood). And when you blend it with the perfect combination of ingredients, this nutritious food turns into a deliciously-healthy treat. Autumn has never tasted and felt so good! Serves 2 ingredients 2 cups fresh spinach 2 cups almond milk, unsweetened 1 cup pumpkin, unsweetened (canned or fresh) 1 banana 1 cup mango 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract directions 1.

  • Coconut Water
    COCONUT WATER Coconut water concentrate and coconut water (single strength) are two of the many types of products supplied by iTi Tropicals. Fruit Overview: Coconuts are the fruit of the coconut palm, native to countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, India, The Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia. They can also be found throughout South and Central America and the Caribbean. While the coconut is a simple dry nut composed of inner fibers, inside lies white, fleshy edible coconut meat, along with refreshing coconut water. The coconut palm has been called the “tree of life” because it offers a source of food, drink, oil, medicine, fiber, timber, thatch, mats, fuel, and domestic utensils for the local populations where it is grown. While coconuts have many uses including pure coconut, coconut cream, and coconut oil, coconut water is among the most popular. Coconut water is naturally filtered for nine months through the dense fibers of the coconut creating a nutritious, pure, and refreshing isotonic beverage that can be mixed with just about any other flavor or fruit without dominating the taste or color. Food Application: Coconut water, (also called coconut juice) is not only refreshing and cool, it has five essential electrolytes, including more potassium than a banana. It has no added sugars, fat, cholesterol or preservatives, and is significantly lower in calories than many other juices. Because coconut wa- ter is 100% juice and is extremely versatile, it can stand alone as a refreshing drink, or it can be blended. It can be the base of tropical drinks, teas, coffee, sauces, cocktails, smoothies, and can even be used as a cooking medium, broth, or marinade.

Phenolic compounds are reactive metabolites in a wide range of plant-derived foods and mainly divided in four groups: phenolic acids, flavonoids, stilbenes and tannins. They work as terminators of free radicals and chelators of metal ions that are capable of catalyzing lipid oxidation. Therefore, this review examines the functional properties of phenolics. Index Terms—Health, functional, phenolic compounds. I. INTRODUCTION In recent years, fruits and vegetables receive considerable interest depending on type, number, and mode of action of the different components, so called as “phytochemicals”, for their presumed role in the prevention of various chronic diseases including cancers and cardiovascular diseases.
