Purple Vanilla Smoothie

"Round up the Usual Fruits and Vegetables."

The Blueberry Pecan & Vanilla Smoothie is a combination of healthy and lean making superfood ingredients.

So what is the secret of this protein booster?

The secret ingredients are the pecans.

Pecan nuts are a very rich source of energy. Pecans do provide 690 calories / 100 g and do contain health benefiting nutrients: antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins. These are all essential for our wellness.

A regular intake of pecan nuts into your diet plan helps you to decrease total as well as LDL or otherwise known as “bad cholesterol”. Eating these nuts does help the increase of HDL or otherwise known as the “good cholesterol” levels in your blood.

Studies also have shown that these healthy compounds that are contained in pecan nuts do in fact help the body remove toxic oxygen free radicals.

This helps protect the body from damages and diseases, infections and cancers.

Pecan nuts do contain anti proliferative properties of ellagic acid which is helping protect the human body from cancers.

Pecan nuts are also an excellent source of vitamin E. Especially rich in gamma tocopherol.

Vitamin E is a powerful lipid soluble antioxidant which is required for maintaining the integrity of cell membrane and Vitamin E helps protect the skin from harmful oxygen free radicals.

These tasty nuts are also a very rich sources of several important B-complex groups of vitamins which are needed for the enzyme metabolism inside the body.

Pecans also do provide a very rich source of minerals like potassium, manganese, calcium, magnesium, iron, magnesium, selenium and zinc.

I recommend to add a hand full of pecans into your smoothies every day to provide your body with sufficient levels of protein, minerals and vitamins.
