ByEdita

If you’ve been craving a fresh and energizing way to start your day, this Green Glow Smoothie is a game-changer. It’s light, hydrating, and packed with nutrients that support weight loss, healthy digestion, and glowing skin.

I personally love this smoothie because it gives me that “healthy start” feeling without being heavy. It’s my go-to when I want something green, refreshing, and quick.

🌱 Why This Smoothie Works for Weight Loss

  • Spinach – low in calories but high in fiber and iron, keeping you satisfied.
  • Kiwi – rich in vitamin C and antioxidants to boost immunity.
  • Cucumber – hydrating and naturally low in calories.
  • Banana – adds creaminess and natural sweetness without refined sugar.
  • Lemon juice – gives a zesty kick and helps digestion.

💡 Pro tip: If you want to increase protein, add a scoop of your favourite protein powder. This addition will help you stay fuller for longer.

  • 1 ripe kiwi (peeled)
  • ½ cucumber (chopped)
  • 1 handful fresh spinach
  • ½ banana

  • Ice cubes

Optional: 1 scoop protein powder or 1 tbsp chia seeds

🥤 How to Make It

🌟 Extra Tips

  • Prep your ingredients ahead: peel and freeze the kiwi and banana for an even creamier smoothie.
