banana berry smoothie to boost breast milk and support muscle recovery

Load up on sweet berries at the farmers’ market and get an immunity boost from this tasty treat! Leafy greens are packed with iron, which supports healthy blood cells as they fend off pathogens. And a burst of vitamin C from the spinach and berries acts as an antioxidant to neutralize free radicals before they can do any damage.
