Coconut Berry Smoothie

This smoothie boasts the hydrating power of coconut water and the antioxidants of berries. Also featured are chia seeds, which are regarded as a super food. Chia seeds form an almost gelatinous coating when exposed to liquid that helps prevent spikes in blood sugar. They are also a great source of fibre, manganese, calcium, protein, tryptophan, and omega 3 fatty acids. 
    Ingredients:
    • 1 cup coconut water
    • 1 cup strawberries
    • 1 cup blueberries
    • 1 banana
    • 1 cup ice
    • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Blend all ingredients and serve immediately. Makes 2 servings.
