Apple smothie

As iv said before I'm trying to eat healthy, and I'm not going to lie too you when I say I am sitting here drinking a can of coke. But I have been making small changes to my diet, because before when I have tried to eat healthy I cut all junk food frim my diet and that just made me want them more. So instead I am taking small steps.

I have began making myself smoothie's, this is because, are quick and easy to make, you can decide what you want to use and what amounts, also they are super tasty! The first smoothie I made was apple and avocado, and I loved it, so here is the recipe I used:

1 apple cored and skinned (any apple of your choice)
1/2  ripe avocado
1/2 cup apple juice
1 teaspoon of freshly squeezed lime

Now I can sit here and tell you what I put in and how healthy it is, but I believe it would be much better for you to actual know what the health benefits of this smoothie are.

Apple- provides fibre and the plant nutrient pectin, which can help lower cholesterol, can help prevent cancer, helps to boost your immune system.

Avocado-Good source of fibre, contains on average 4 grams of protein, vitamins k,b5, b6, folate and potassium and soluble vitamin E. Folate helps protect the heart and prevent strokes, also lowers cholesterol, can help prevent against eye disease and also some cancers!

So silly me forgot to take a picture of the smoothie but take it from me it was delicious!
