Espresso Smoothie
You’ll love the aroma and bold, bitter flavor of this drink. Coffee not only
keeps you awake, but there is research that shows drinking a cup of Joe
increases insulin sensitivity due to its mineral content of chromium and
magnesium., These are known to stimulate insulin uptake in the cells.
Coffee is also a great source of antioxidants, which are known to lower
risks of inflammatory conditions, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
disease.
