Anti-inflammatory Ginger and Grapefruit Smoothie


Grapefruits are a wonderful source of vitamin C and antioxidants—and they make a wonderful base for this smoothie! Combining grapefruit with turmeric and fresh ginger for their anti-inflammatory properties, bananas for sweetness, and cashews for healthy fats, this drink is perfect as an on-the-go breakfast, and you can even sneak in a handful of fresh spinach to get a dose of greens!

    What could be substituted for the banana? I am deathly allergic to banana. Thanks!

      Hi Susan,
      I don’t eat bananas either but I love smoothies. I would suggest adding another fruit such as blueberries.
