Triple Berry Fruit Smoothie Recipe

Photo by stephenliveshere

Here’s a delicious smoothie for all you berry lovers. The three berries that comprise this smoothie recipe are blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries. All three combine for an antioxidant powerhouse.

The primary free radical-scavengers found in all three berries are vitamin C and manganese, which are critical antioxidants for protecting the body’s tissue from oxygen-related damage. You’ll also get a good serving of heart-healthy fiber from this smoothie.

I prefer using frozen (organic whenever possible) berries in my smoothies, but fresh are just as good. This recipe doesn’t mandate all three berries, substituting in pineapple or mango is just fine. Now to the recipe for this tasty treat. Enjoy!
