Green Smoothie with Pineapple

🥬🍍 Last year, I read two very inspiring books, “Goodbye Lupus” and “Goodbye Autoimmune Disease” by Dr. Brooke Goldner (https://goodbyelupus.com/). If you want motivation to increase your intake of greens in your diet, even if you don’t have any autoimmune diseases, I highly recommend seeking out her story and experience.

Dr. Goldner recommends green smoothies as one of the easiest ways to incorporate greens into your diet. She suggests filling your blender with 75% greens and 25% fruit of your choice for taste, along with chia and flax seeds for omega-3 fatty acids, and of course, water.

I have been making some version of this smoothie for almost a year now, and we all like to drink it. I notice that our immune system gets better when we regulary drink it and that I have more energy. This is my version of her smoothie.
