What Are The Benefits of Strawberry Blueberry Banana Smoothie?
This strawberry blueberry banana weight loss smoothie contains 3 out of your 5 a day, which means that it contains numerous vitamins and minerals.
Furthermore, berries and bananas are high in fiber, which promotes healthy digestion and satiety.
But, here is the full list of all the benefits you can expect to get from this double berry banana smoothie:
- Rich in Antioxidants: Anxitodants protect cells from damage by free radicals, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
- Supports Digestive Health: Dietary fiber from fruits can promote regular bowel movements and prevent constipation.
- Boosts Immunity: High vitamin C content from strawberries and blueberries can strengthen the immune system.
- Heart Health: The use of Linseeds (flaxseeds) in this strawberry banana blueberry shake is a source of omega-3 fatty acids, which may support cardiovascular health.

Recipe Variations: Choose What Best Works For Your Own Goals & Taste!
Everybody has different tastes and preferences, which is why I created several versions of this recipe.
Here are some variations of this recipe you can make:
- If you are not vegan and want to make this strawberry banana blueberry smoothie with yogurt, add a couple of tablespoons of unsweetened Greek yogurt as an extra ingredient.
- For an ultra-thick smoothie, use frozen fruit instead of fresh.
- For a high-protein version of this smoothie, add a scoop of protein powder. I like to use vanilla protein powder.
- If you don’t have flaxseeds to chia seeds, adding oats is also totally fine.
- If you love nuts, add a tablespoon of nut butter of your choice too.
