This is a great tool to pack in vegetables and fruits and thus antioxidants and nutrients. Please note that overall, we are meant to chew our food, allowing enzymes in the mouth to start breaking down carbohydrates, and exercise needed facial muscles. Souse this gem-of-a-recipe mindfully, and not everyday.
Further, because the blender breaks down fiber, carbohydrate enters the blood stream rapidly, which may not be good for those with metabolic syndrome, glucose or insulin sensitivity, overweight or obesity, or vascular disease.
