Green smoothie is good for an upset stomach.

Adding bananas to your smoothies is good for an upset stomach since it is easily digestible, a great source of potassium and rich in pectin.

Pectin promotes proper gut function.

Ginger is also good for nausea and immune boosting

Adding spinach to your diet is healthy. Research shows that leafy greens also contain a specific type of sugar that helps fuel the growth of healthy gut bacteria.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup of spinach
  • 1 banana
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp flaxseed
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup coconut water or regular water
  • Ginger
  • Lemon juice
  • Ice cubes

Preparation

Step 1

Put all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Step 2

If you do not have a high-powered blender, start with the liquid, then add the spinach and blend. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth to avoid spinach flecks.

Step 3

Drinking as it is, is healthy as you will benefit from the fiber, but you can always sieve to have a smooth consistency.

Serve and enjoy!
