Benefits of the Ingredients that are included in the Coconut Macadamia Nut Smootie

With my vast experience and interest in nutrition I would recommend you to try out this smoothie. Macadamia nut is rich in vitamin B complexes that aid metabolic functions. It is also rich in minerals, like selenium, an antioxidant, and others like manganese, magnesium, iron, calcium and zinc. It has high dietary fibre content that helps in digestion.

Ingredients

10 macadamia nuts
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
1/4 Avocado
1/2 cup of coconut flakes
1 Banana
Honey

5 Minute Instructions

Blend the ingredients together until smooth. Serve best chilled

My own experience

You may not want macadamia nuts for its high fat content, but am here to inform you that the nuts are rich in mono-unsaturated fat, which is the good fat. This lowers your LDL which is the bad cholesterol and raises your HDL, the good cholesterol. Macadamia nuts also reminds me of my vacation to Hawaii a few years ago. The Macadamia nut is so delicious and rich in taste and on the other hand it is very healthy at the same time. In terms of taste this is my favorite smoothie and I try to at least include the Coconut Macadamia Nut one time per week as a treat and to keep me mentally motivated!
