Equipment Needed To Make At Home
A standard blender is all that is required to make these delicious smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.
If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend a higher-end Vitamix blender that can process larger loads more efficiently.
For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, mangos are highly beneficial for health. They are a rich source of vitamins A and C, and also provide dietary fiber, which aids in digestion. Furthermore, they contain plant compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, and have been linked to improvements in heart health, digestive health, and skin health.
While fruit juice can be a source of vitamins, it is also high in sugar and lacks the fiber found in whole fruits. As a result, most health guidelines, including those from the American Heart Association, suggest limiting fruit juice to a small glass (about 4 to 6 ounces) per day. It’s generally healthier to consume whole fruits for the added benefits of fiber and a lower glycemic index.
