Did you know a 100-gram serving of pomegranate seeds provide 12% of the daily value for vitamin D, 16% for vitamin K and 10% for folate? The red fruit, mainly used for its delicious sweet and tart juice, is also an excellent source of fiber with 20% of the daily value needed.
For his next recovery smoothie, BPI Sports Resident Chef Geo chose pomegranate for its antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. Mix that with high quality BCAA formula such as Best BCAA™, and you’ve got a refreshing way to repair and recover your muscles after an intense workout.
This BCAA smoothie recipe also calls for strawberries and half a banana for a creamy texture not to mention an exceptional dose of potassium, not to mention vitamin B6, vitamin C, manganese and fiber. So are you ready for a tall glass of health?
