Berry Banana Smoothies

This fast and filling smoothie doubles as a satisfying snack or light breakfast. Raw rolled oats are without a doubt the star ingredient. When raw, rolled oats are a rich source of resistant starch, a potent prebiotic that feeds the good bacteria in your gut. When well fed, these bacteria produce beneficial by-products that keep the gut wall strong, protect against cancer and type 2 diabetes, improve insulin resistance… the list goes on! All that for a smoothie that takes less than five minutes to make? Count us in.
