Carrot and mango smoothie
The mango is a juicy, rich pulpy fruit, rich in magnesium and vitamins A, C and K, which makes it an excellent anti-inflammatory.

In addition, like pineapple and papaya, mango contains enzymes that help promote bowel movement.

The carrot is a very recognized vegetable in the world. And not only is it due to its delicious flavor, but also to its contribution of nutrients such as:

Fiber, vitamins (A, B, C, D, E, folic acid), minerals (iron, potassium, phosphorus, calcium) and natural antioxidants.
