Banana Spinach & Flaxseed Smoothie

Smoothies are one of the easiest ways to pack multiple nutrients into one glass, and this combination is especially beneficial for people managing blood pressure. Bananas are rich in potassium, which helps balance sodium levels and reduce tension in blood vessel walls. Spinach adds magnesium and nitrates, both known to support vascular health. Flaxseeds contribute plant-based omega-3 fatty acids and fibre, making this smoothie a heart-healthy powerhouse.

Using low-fat milk or unsweetened almond milk keeps the smoothie creamy without adding unhealthy fats. Unlike sugar-heavy shakes, this recipe uses only natural sweetness from bananas, making it suitable for daily use.

It’s perfect for breakfast, a mid-morning snack, or even as a light dinner when paired with a small portion of whole grains.
