Fruits are high in antioxidants and vitamins, and they aid digestion. There are many fruits to pick from, from bananas to mangos to pineapples. The most important thing is to make sure the fruits you'll be using are fresh, in season, and, ideally, organic. Berries, bananas, stone fruits (peaches, plums, mangoes, nectarines), and citrus fruits like pineapples, oranges, lemons, limes are the best fruits to utilize.
Add Greens
You must select your vegetables carefully if you want your smoothie to be as nutritious as possible. Because you shouldn't feel bloated or full when doing yoga, use light vegetables. Leafy greens (spinach, kale, Swiss chard), avocado, beets, carrots, celery, cucumber, and pumpkin are some of the greatest vegetables to use.
Add A Dose Of Protein
You'll need a protein boost for a session packed of strengthening poses. The best proteins are those derived from plants. Chia seed, hemp seed, plant protein powder, natural nut butters, and organic rolled oats are some of the alternatives. These nutritious proteins are perfect because they are compatible with nearly all dietary regimens and restrictions.
