Tropical Turmeric Smoothie


This recipe is best consumed in the morning on an empty stomach. Not only will it increase your energy for the first half of the day, but it will clear your mind and infuse your body with some of the most powerful antioxidants in the world. Now that’s a great breakfast idea!

Research shows that turmeric has powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and antioxidant properties. It has also been shown to block cancer cells, to reduce the risk for diabetes, and to be good for the liver. 

An easy way to reduce inflammation and to give your immune system a powerful boost is to add turmeric to your diet. I use turmeric liberally in my cooking and will often whip up a Creamy Tropical Turmeric Smoothie for a breakfast.
