Golden Breakfast Smoothie

Golden Breakfast Smoothie Recipe

Turmeric is the spice responsible for giving this smoothie its beautiful golden colour. Turmeric contains a powerful phytochemical called curcumin, which has strong anti-inflammatory effects. However, curcumin is best absorbed by the body when consumed with some fat, hence the added coconut oil in this smoothie.
