Breakfast

Citrus, ginger and coconut smoothie

Naartjies, grapefruit, lemon juice, fresh ginger, oats, raw almonds and fat-free yoghurt blitzed with reduced-fat coconut milk — a South African breakfast in a glass. Ginger is an antioxidant: it has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory potential from phenolic compounds like gingerol, shogaol and paradol. These compounds activate and suppress certain immune-specialised cells, which leads to the improvement of the body's immune responses and defence systems.
