In traditional Chinese medicine, mulberries are sometimes used to treat swelling and redness. Because mulberries contain iron (which isn’t a common mineral in fruit), they can help increase the body’s production of red blood cells, and therefore improve circulation. Mulberries are also quite high in vitamin C. Cinnamon, bananas, pecans and almond milk combine to create a creamy, protein-infused, anti-inflammatory base, and sweet potatoes are one of the best sources of natural, sustained energy. If you’re looking for a sweet treat before or after a good workout, toast to your hard work with this smoothie.

Put all the ingredients in a blender and whizz until completely smooth. If it’s a little thick, add a drop of chilled water then blitz again.
Pour the smoothie into a tall glass to serve.
