Purple Rush Smoothie

About the benefits of the ingredients

Blueberries are among the most nutrient dense berries. A 1 cup serving (148 grams) of blueberries contains (1, 2):

  • Fiber: 4 grams.
  • Vitamin C: 24% of the RDA.
  • Vitamin K: 36% of the RDA.
  • Manganese: 25% of the RDA.
  • Then it contains small amounts of various other nutrients.

Bananas are a very good source of vitamin B6, vitamin C, and potassium. Bananas are further a good source of manganese, dietary fiber, biotin, and copper.

Apples are extremely rich in important antioxidants, flavanoids, and dietary fiber. The phytonutrients and antioxidants in apples may help reduce the risk of developing cancer, hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease.

Oranges have so many benefits and I consider them a Powerfood. They have a wealth of nutrients including vitamin C, vitamin A precursors, calcium, potassium, and pectin. No wonder when you were kid you parents kept pushing you to have your orange or orange juice in the morning.

Hydrilla Verticillata is a unique fresh water plant that is a literal powerhouse of essential nutrients that our bodies need daily to function optimally. Due to Hydrilla’s extraordinarily high levels of naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, it only takes one teaspoon of this nutrient-rich, whole-food plant powder to give yourself a serious nutritional boost equivalent to eating over 2 pounds of fresh vegetables!

Last Flaxseed (also called linseeds) are a rich source of micronutrients, dietary fiber, manganese, vitamin B1, and the essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid, also known as ALA or omega-3.
