With the imminent arrival of summer, there&#8217;s never been a better time to experiment with new ways of getting active. Winter can be a long period of skipping exercise in place of chilling on the couch (hey, there&#8217;s no judgement here!) but it&#8217;s never too late to refresh your habits. If you&#8217;re feeling like your diet needs a kick too, then this smoothie is the ideal thing for you sip on. It&#8217;s packed with nutrient dense kale, iron-rich spinach and watercress, along with metabolism boosting goji berries and flax seeds. There&#8217;s also a frozen banana popped in there, for added creaminess, and a couple of slices of ginger (which aid indigestion and malabsorption) for an extra special zing. We&#8217;re big fans of grabbing a smoothie on the go as it makes an ideal meal option when you&#8217;re too busy to sit down and eat. This smoothie will keep you feeling full, while also giving your metabolism a necessary kick.<\/p>\n<p>With the help of probably one of the most popular kitchen appliances around, making yourself a tasty smoothie is incredibly simple and fuss-free.
