Almonds one of the world’s best sources of Vitamin E. Vitamin E is an important antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage. Additionally, almonds can lower cholesterol levels and provide sustained energy throughout the day. Almonds are also packed with protein, carbs and fats, helping to release energy throughout the day.

Adding oatmeal to the mix, another antioxidant-rich breakfast staple, will help keep you full and maintain blood sugar levels. This is because oatmeal is a great source of fiber, which is beneficial for maintaining energy and avoiding spikes and crashes throughout the day.

Best Banana Oatmeal Smoothie

Incorporating bananas into a smoothie is a tasty way to get potassium, which helps give you energy in the morning. Bananas also aid digestion and lower the risk of Type 2 Diabetes, just like the oats.

If you like your smoothies creamy, the Greek yogurt will add sweetness and create a thicker texture that provides protein and probiotics for a healthy gut. This recipe calls for honey-flavored yogurt, but feel free to switch up the yogurt at any time (vanilla is another option that fits well with this mix!)

The smoothie’s simplicity and versatility make it suitable for both adults and children. Whether you’re sharing it with your family or sneaking a cup for yourself, this smoothie is sure to be a daily boost of goodness.
