Keto Kale Smoothie Ingredients
This low carb kale smoothie is packed with ingredients that are not only in carbs but loaded with vitamins and nutrients. They contain several health benefits as well!
- Kale - A leafy green vegetable that has many health benefits. It contains calcium, iron, and vitamin K, which can help to reduce the risk of osteoporosis or bone fractures. It can also be good for the heart and can help with digestion.
- Avocado - A good source of fiber, folate, and potassium. They contain antioxidants that can help lower heart disease or cancer risk. Avocado also has healthy fats, which can help with weight loss and are also good for the heart.
- Celery - A good source of potassium, vitamin C, and manganese. It can help with blood pressure regulation and also helps to maintain healthy bones by providing calcium.
- Cucumber - A low-calorie, high-water food that can help soothe digestive problems. It contains antioxidants and vitamin C, which help to protect cells from premature aging.
- Almond milk - A good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. It also contains protein which can help to build muscle mass. Almond milk may lower cholesterol levels and improve heart health by reducing the risk of blood clots.
