Properties of the apple (and a smoothie to take advantage of them)

Apple smoothie

The apple tree is one of the most cultivated fruit trees worldwide and its fruit, the apple, one of the richest in nutrients necessary for our body such as iron, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus and even fibers.

Among its medicinal properties We can find that the apple is anti-inflammatory of the digestive system, antidiarrheal, diuretic, purifying, hypertensive, anticancer, reduces cholesterol levels, combats insomnia and a long etcetera. In addition, used externally, it is used to calm muscle pain caused by physical effort or to improve the appearance of the skin in areas such as the neck or the eye area.

As you can see, its benefits are many although I have not named them all and, therefore, it must be a common food in our diet daily. It all depends on how we like it best, it can be taken as is, in cakes, in the form of a smoothie, juices ... We have a choice! For today I have opted for a apple smoothie, how cool at snack time is very appetizing.

When serving ...

The foam left in the apple smoothie It is a bit thick, pass it through a strainer if it bothers you.

Recipe suggestions:

If you do not like the apple alone you can add some more fruit, for example I usually mix the apple with peach, banana o pear. Another option is to add other ingredients such as a little miel or some almonds.

The best:

  • There are people who do not like to eat the apple in pieces or biting it, however in the form of a smoothie they are able to enjoy it.
  • One of the first fruits to be incorporated into the baby feeding is the apple. Try to give it in a smoothie or add less milk to make it thicker, as if it were a puree. Remember that you must incorporate each new food one by one and with periods of time (in case an allergy arises, detect which food it is due to).

Bon Appetite! Enjoy the recipe and have a good weekend.

    I am one of those people who are not convinced by the apple to mouth, so I sure like the milkshake better! I will try it because it is true that the apple has many properties. I really like to cook salty with it, but I imagine that with the heat, it loses properties ...

    You will see that you will like it in a smoothie, you can also take it freshly made and thus take better advantage of its properties that, as you said, are lost a bit with the heat ... You will tell me ^ _ ^

    Kisses!
