Fresh ginger aids with digestion.
"Anti-inflammatory pineapple and ginger add a twist to the classic nutrient-dense green smoothie," says New York City–based registered dietician, Ariana Korman, CDN. "The enzyme bromelain in pineapple has been shown to speed up muscle recovery by reducing oxidative damage from exercise." Chia seeds are rehydrating while MCT oil provides healthy fats and, according to Korman, "fuels the brain and supports memory, focus, and critical thinking." The matcha will add a hit of energy without the jitters.
