    Well, you don't really need the fennel, but it is fun, read on..

    Why Add Carrots to a Citrus Smoothie

    Carrots are cool because they also reduce the risk of cancers, are high in antioxidants to slow cell damage, and are actually a powerful antiseptic which kills bacteria that causes tooth decay, and can actually be used raw and mashed on open wounds to prevent infection, and balances blood sugar.

    All About Camu Camu Powder

    And camu camu powder is such an immune-booster since it carries more vitamin C than any other food, as well as ability to balance mood, and is a powerful anti-inflammatory. It's a bit bitter though so stick to the measurement and perhaps taste-test and add a bit of orange or grapes, any fruit that sweetens.

    Spice Up Your Smoothie with Fennel

    Lastly the fennel, only a quarter of chopped bulb, but enough to impart all the nutrition of fennel - antioxidant as well as provider of fiber and potassium - and a slight tart licorice flavor.

    Finally, by now you have read about the trending benefits of celery juice. Well, I'm all for adding new ingredients to my fresh smoothies, so in this recipe I have added a stalk of organic celery, stripped of strings, and freshly scrubbed. This adds inflammation nutrients as well as more.

    Should You Add Celery to a Smoothie?

    Celery is on the "dirty" list with the EWG.org so be sure to buy it organic. Now adding a stalk of celery is not juicing it which is said to bring on the more intense healing qualities. That recipe will come next!

    Any season, enjoy this immune-boosting interesting smoothie!

    How to Add Healthy Protein to a Smoothie

    Want to add even more protein to this smoothie? Here are a few ideas:

    Add ½ cup yogurt - I love coconut yogurt, unsweetened.
    Add 1-2 tbsp of cashew butter or almond butter both have a mild flavor and go well with sweet fruits.
    1-2 tbsp of chia seeds - for added protein and fiber, but note the seeds will add speckles to the drink.
