- Turmeric: Turmeric is a major super food and has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties
- Ginger: Ginger may help to improve digestion, blood circulation, improve brain function & is also great for reducing menstrual pain or cramps

There are so many health benefits to each of these foods, far beyond what I’ve listed above. Plant-based foods, specifically fruits & vegetables, are nutrient dense & provide the body which so much nutrition to help all of our body systems function optimally! It can be difficult to consume all the veggies we need in a day. That’s why I love a green drink, like I’ve shared today. A green drink is a fantastic way to consume multiple servings of fruits & veggies in one easy meal or snack!
