Top 10 banana smoothie recipes for weight loss

Bananas are considered to be one of the best fruits for snacking. They’re accessible, portable, delicious and nutritious. A unique complex of vitamins, macro- and microelements provides useful properties of this fruit for the body. Drinking banana smoothies for weight loss will benefit your health in other ways:

• Heart and blood vessels. Even though it isn’t sour it has a lot of vitamin C, that helps to fight disease and strengthen the walls of blood vessels and cell walls, enhancing the immune system.
• Eyesight. There’s a lot of carotene in the little yellow fruits (a special form of vitamin A).
• Sexual activity and potency. They contain vitamin E, which is responsible for the reproductive system.
• Muscles and bones. A high content of potassium relieves muscle tension. In combination with magnesium, the element struggles with spasms and cramps in the muscles.

Two of these a day will provide you with a supply of these vitamins and will keep your youth and beauty for a long time.
