Smoothies are always a good idea. They’re prepared with fresh and healthy ingredients that are easily digested and they’re really nutritive, which makes them the perfect breakfast and dinner.
Chia seed, the ultimate superfood, is becoming a real sensation. It’s the product that contains the biggest amount of omega 3 fatty acids, even more than fish oil. It fights against free radicals and it makes your skin gorgeous, healthy and glowy.
Chia seed contains 30% more antioxidants than blueberries and chia seed oil is rich in proteins, vitamin A, B1, B2, and B3, iron, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, zinc and copper.
Despite the many health benefits, chia seed is also amazing for skin problems. More and more cosmetic brands have been using chia seed in the production of their skin care products.
Here’s a simple smoothie recipe that will give you lots of energy and will make your skin look amazing:
Ingredients:
- 1 banana
