HYDRATING PINEAPPLE MELON MINT SMOOTHIE RECIPE
When it’s hot out and you need a refreshing pre-workout smoothie, this creamy pineapple watermelon and mint smoothie is sure to hit the spot.

Aside from being incredible hydrating, the pineapple in this watermelon smoothie recipe contains bromelain, a natural anti-inflammatory and Vitamin C to help repair muscle tissue.

This is also a high potassium recipe that includes calcium, key minerals which help with muscle recovery. 

Another reason we love this minty smoothie pre-workout is the chia seeds add just the right amount of healthy fats and fiber.

If you want to make this a refreshing post-workout smoothie you will need to up the protein content.

We recommend adding a scoop of your favorite plant-based vanilla protein powder.

Of course, if you just want a low calorie breakfast smoothie and you have a sensitive stomach, drink the whole thing – this will help ease digestion and keep you going until lunch.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF MINT
Mint is a great appetizer or palate cleanser, and it promotes digestion.

It also soothes stomachs in cases of indigestion or inflammation.

When you feel sick to your stomach, drinking a cup of mint tea can give you relief.

Also, if you are someone who travels long distances via plane or boat, the menthol oil derived from mint can be very soothing for nausea and related motion sickness.

    1. Hi Regina and welcome! Some of my favorite foods to help with inflammation is ginger, turmeric, kale, cherries and walnuts. My go to supplement for inflammation is E3Live blue green algae – it’s more potent than spirulina but both have case studies where it helped relieve inflammation.
