Smoothies and juices are becoming increasingly popular around the world. Not only because they’re delicious or easy to make, but because experts have taken their contribution of energy and nutrients into account. And while there are many different recipes, we’ll focus on rejuvenating smoothies and juices below.

For this reason and because they support the body’s main functions, consuming them frequently as part of a balanced diet is another of the good habits that you can adopt to enjoy their benefits.
