Bananas are excellent supporters of a healthy heart. One large banana provides up to 480mg of potassium, which is essential for the muscles that make your heart beat. In fact, low potassium intake is related to higher risk of stroke so, banana’s high-potassium/low-sodium combo makes them a great addition to any healthy heart routine.
This smoothie add mango for a tropical fruity taste and oatmeal for additional fiber. It also has persimmon, but tastes just great without it if you find that ingredient difficult to find. Leave out the honey if you like you smoothies less sweet. Try frozen mango if you like a frosty smoothie.
