    I just live these recipes, they look really delicious, easy to make and have many important ingredients in the diet to have a nice and healthy body. Surely I have to practice at least one of them, I think that the smoothie is a good choice in the mornings to take advantage of fiber since early.

    Thank you so much!! You have to be careful with fiber, however. While these recipes are great, and I’m sure they provide an ample amount of dietary fiber, consuming too much fiber can be really hard on the GI tract…I know from personal experience 😉 I used to eat those fiber one bars like they were going out of style, and it just tore my gut up.
