What’s good about this frozen smoothie?
Bananas are high in potassium and a good source of magnesium for you, both of which are essential for heart health.
The addition of cocoa powder not only adds a delicious taste, but it also has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties thanks to a naturally occurring compound called flavanols.
