Benefits of the Ingredients that are included in the Kale Apple Smoothie
I personally recommend this smoothie as it makes has a lot of Vitamins A, B6, C and K. The kales have calcium, iron fibre, and anti cancer compounds. Apples and kales have antioxidant and anti inflammatory properties, thus helps in detoxification

Mobile Tips
If you are a mobile people person or traveller, you can use a hand blender or shaker and insted of using the whole fruits, you can replace them with fresh juices so instead of using a frozen banana in this case you would use already prepared banana juice or banan purée. You can do this preparation with all types of fruits and vegetables at home before you go. I am usually preparing this one day before I go out or travel. I am keeping various fruit/vegetable juice bottles and purée bottles in my fridge or in the freezer and take them with me in the cooler. I can then take what I need out of my mobile cooker and put the amounts into my hand shaker and add some ice cubes and then shake my hand shaker very well. This procedure gives me the same tasty and creamy experience on the go!
If I only go out for the day, the process becomes a bit easier and I add all the fruit juices and vegetable juices in my hand shaker plus I add some ice cubes to keep it cool. As I am on the go, I can shake it so I am able to get the same creamy smoothie type texture and taste that I like so much.
This is perfect for a morning at the gym or in the city and I have my smoothie with me all the time in order to keep me energized and refreshed until lunch time. I am usually choosing a healthy luch place that offers vegetable and green smoothies. I usually reorder the same and then fill it in my shaker and shake it as I go so I have enough to drink for the afternoon.
You can repeat this same procedure for dinner time as well, but make sure to only choose the types of smoothies that are good for the night. It should sooth you and relax you so that you can sleep. Do not choose any smoothie ingredients that energize you too much like ginger etc. Just look at the different ingredients to see what is inside your smoothie so that you can decide for yourself. Once you learn more about the different ingredients and know what they are doing for your body and mind, you will know exactly what smoothie to order or what to make for breakfast, lunch, dinner and before bedtime.
My own experience
Try this smoothie even if you are not so much into kales. It has much health benefits. The apple juice masks the vegetable flavour and you can enjoy your whole cup of vitamin rich juice. I do not like the taste of kale so much, but this combination makes it taste deliciously.
