Health benefits 

This is a high fibre nutritious smoothie where one portion gives you around half of recommended daily intake of fibre. Perfect for breakfast or as an afternoon snack. Great to take together with Synbiotic Cap Daily. The fibre intake acts as food for the healthy bacteria to grow and supports a healthy microbiome. Fibre is important for digestion, satiety and blood sugar control. 

 This smoothie also contains healthy fat from the mct oil, almonds and chia seeds. Raspberries are low in natural sugar and contain 6g fibre per 100gr. Chia seeds contain approx 2g fibre per tsp (5g) so a very easy way to upgrade daily fibre intake by sprinkling it on salads, any other food or adding to smoothies etc.
