SPICY FRUIT & NUT

This is a perfect refuel smoothie after a heavy workout or run. The good fats (avocado/peanut butter) combined with natural electrolytes (coconut water) and vitamins make this fantastic to feed your body full of nutrients to aid fast recovery. Perfect to share or if replacing more than 800 calories you will want the whole jug to yourself! 

Consuming cocoa powder modestly increases your intake of vitamin E, an antioxidant, as well as vitamin K, a nutrient required for proper blood clotting. The powder also provides a modest source of choline, a nutrient that aids in nerve communication within your brain.

Additionally, consuming cocoa powder slightly boosts your intake of several B vitamins. However, since cocoa powder is typically consumed only in small amounts, it does not contribute significantly to your overall vitamin intake.

Peanut butter has a high level of monounsaturated fats and resveratrol (type of natural phenol). Peanut butter provides protein, vitamins B3 and E, magnesium, folate, dietary fiber, arginine and high levels of the antioxidant p-coumaric acid.
