Fresh fig honey smoothie is a great source of healthy ingredients. Figs are fruiting units of ficus tree. They are called as anjura in Kannada or anjeer in Hindi.
Figs are good source of potassium that helps control blood pressure. It's a good source of dietary fiber. They are rich in antioxidants and help fight cancer.
Figs are lusciously sweet and give a nice combination of chewiness of pulp and crunchiness of seeds to the smoothie. There are multiple varieties of figs varying in colour and texture. These figs are dried and used throughout the year.
They are easily perishable fruits so care should be taken to select good deep colour, free of bruises fruits and intact stalk. They are used in different varieties of healthy dishes.
My other main ingredient of this recipe is honey. Honey forms a great natural sweetener, packed with natural fructose and glucose.
They are fat free, cholesterol free and contain high percentage of carbohydrate, vitamin, minerals and antioxidants helping in fight many serious illnesses. Fig and honey form a good combination for weight loss diet.
