About:

This is a healthy nutritious smoothie. Ideal for breakfast as it has muesli and nuts in it.

The muesli used is the combination of oats, wheat flakes, bran flakes and Rye flakes. I also included nuts which together provide nutrition. Those who skip breakfast in the mornings are usually not able to meet their daily nutritional requirements and hence do not get enough vitamins and minerals. Eating muesli in the mornings will give you the energy. Muesli consists of substantial amounts of both soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber regulates blood sugar levels

Including nuts in muesli makes it rich in phytochemical and antioxidants which reduce the risk of cancer and nuts also supply monounsaturated fats and essential fatty acids which are beneficial for health.

Enjoy this as a healthy nutritious breakfast drink.
