MONDAY'S WITH MARCO
This Monday's with Marco edition is a GREEN edition.
Why?
If there is one simple thing you can do this week to improve your health, just one thing, without worrying about anything else it would be to try one of these green juice/smoothie recipes or any you can create your own.
Now besides the fact that they:
Help you to naturally lose weight (being low in calories)
Are a massive energy booster
Improve your immune function keeping you healthy
Are high in micronutrients (which you need)
They also will:
Make you less hangry (use as a mid morning or arvo snack)
Be an opportunity to get your greens in
Be super easy to make and even easier to consume
Leave you feeling good
The list goes on but all you really need to do is try it this week for yourself!
All that's left is to find the one that you like best. Here are some examples below.
