Smoothies can be addicted to some individuals. Well, not for me, as difficult to change eating "nasi" for every meal. But, it's good for a quick, easy, tasty yet healthy breakfast and snacks. A well-prepared #smoothie can be delicious, healthy and nutritious. These 5 smoothies contain anti-inflammatory ingredients that help you to fight inflammation.

Pineapple Turmeric Smoothie
From the Author: "This smoothie is absolutely packed with anti-inflammatory goodness with turmeric, chia seeds, pineapple, and ginger! Thanks to the fresh fruit and pineapple it has a sweet tropical flavor with a subtle warming kick from the ginger and turmeric – super unique and refreshing!"
It is important to note that curcumin in the #turmeric is not readily bioavailable (able to be absorbed by our bodies). By consuming curcumin with peperine (found in black pepper) the bioavailability of curcumin is increased by 2000%. Curcumin is also fat soluble which is why the coconut oil is added to this recipe.
