Why a Green Smoothie (with Spinach) Is So Supportive

Concentrated nourishment in one glass.

• Have 1 green smoothie packed with greens, ginger, and chia.
• Focus food: Spinach.
• Journal prompt: What foods make you feel your best? Which ingredients feel most energizing, and which feel heavy?

Spinach is a powerful smoothie base, rich in folate, iron, and magnesium for energy, mood, and muscle function; vitamin K and antioxidants for bones and lowering inflammation; and fiber for digestion, blood sugar balance, and a healthy microbiome. Blending it makes a big serving of greens easy to get down, and pairing it with healthy fats and fiber keeps you fuller and more stable in energy.
