SUN SMOOTHIE - or popsicles
Optimal hydration and nutrition for the body before, during and after time in the sun - and sweet as sugar (in the most healthy way, of course).
We have created the perfect sweet combination of cantaloupe melon with its low sugar content, mango and sweet potato, which, although very sweet, is very low in the glycemic index *.
SUN SMOOTHIE contains:
- Carotenoids, which naturally give the skin a healthy glow (cantaloupe melon, sweet potato).
- The powerful antioxidant vitamin C, which helps protect against UV radiation (cantaloupe melon, sweet potato, orange, mango).
- The mineral potassium, an electrolyte that maintains good fluid balance (cantaloupe melon, orange).
- Skin-strengthening and UV-protective vitamin A (sweet potato, mango)
