All Star Smoothie Soother

You can throw just about anything in a fruit smoothie to enhance its flavor such as honey, tofu, jams, any combination of fruits, peanut butter, juices, etc., but keep in mind it will effect the nutritional values.

1/2 papaya, peeled, deseeded and sliced
1 cup (250 ml) fresh pineapple juice
1 cup (250 ml) plain yogurt
1/2 in. (1 cm) fresh ginger root, peeled and sliced

Process all the ingredients in a blender until smooth and frothy.

Pineapple, papaya and ginger contain enzymes which aid digestion. Acidophilus yogurt helps to restore beneficial intestinal bacteria.

Fresh pineapple is rich in bromelain, a group of sulfur-containing proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzymes that not only aid digestion, but can effectively reduce inflammation and swelling, and has even been used experimentally as an anti-cancer agent. To maximize bromelain's anti-inflammatory effects, pineapple should be eaten alone between meals or its enzymes will be used up digesting food. Bromelain is found in both the flesh and stem of pineapple. Since it is deactivated by heat, pineapple juice and canned pineapple are not good sources of this health-promoting enzyme.
