Glowing Skin Green Smoothie

March 11, 2016 Mckenzie Hettman
Join Us On Facebook

Today I wanted to share one of my favorite smoothies for clear and healthy skin. A good skin care routine can certainly help and should be included in your overall skin care equation, but diet is going to be at the root of the issue. There is no one-size-fits-all answer but adding more greens to your diet is a great place to start on your journey to better skin. Here's why:

Vitamin A is essential for healthy skin. One cup of spinach contains more than 50% of the recommended daily value. Leafy greens are high in antioxidants that help prevent inflammation which can cause skin issues like acne and eczema. Bananas are high in vitamin C, magnesium, and vitamin B6 which create the "glow" look. Pineapples are full of antioxidants that prevent cell damage. Pineapples also increases collagen synthesis which keeps skin firm and youthful. All the ingredients in this smoothie come together to make the perfect blend for healthy skin! 


Total time: 3 minutes | Yields: 1 smoothie


Ingredients

  • 2 cups organic spinach
  • 1/4 an avocado 
  • 1/2 cup frozen banana 
  • 1/2 cup frozen pineapple
  • 1/4 cup collagen protein powder
  • 1- 2 cups organic pure coconut water 

Method 

  1. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Enjoy!

Pulled pork verde stuffed avocados😍😋
Try this garlic artichoke dip if you’re hosting/attended a Super Bowl party🏈 My recipe uses Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a healthy twist👍 P.S This recipe has only received extremely positive feedback and hundreds of people have made it (thanks Pinterest)🙃 #superbowl

I wasn’t planning on sharing my #bestnine but my heart melted a little when I saw that it was all pictures of my family! So sweet that my family was “liked” more than all the food pics. ❤️❤️
Follow your heart.
I remember when the office was still running and EVERYONE said they had a love like Jim and Pam. From the beginning Brian and I always said we were more like Michael & Holly.. Several years later and a couple beet farmers later, I think we're identifying more with Dwight & Angela😂 #bearsbeetsbattlestargalactica
Do you have a food you eat several times a week, every week? For us, it's this simple arugula salad😍 All you need is a heaping bowl of arugula (my favorite green), shaved Parmesan, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, cracked pepper, and course sea salt. #simplefancy
My garden is growing like crazy which means salad season isn't over yet❤️🥗

Huckleberry scones😋 #summereats
This weekend was absolutely blissful🖤 For Huck's first camping trip, we went to the mountain and set up camp nestled in a field of wild Huckleberries. I mean how cute is that?! It was the coolest thing to have thousands of wild berries surrounding us and the view of Mount Adams was stunning!
I'm dreaming of fall after the last few days of cooler weather and even some rain! Definitely looking forward to the food more than anything😊 This delicata squash and kale salad with maple vinaigrette is the reason fall foods are so pretty🍁
