10-Day Smoothies For Weight Loss : Day 8- Melon Grapefruit Fat Blaster

Day 8 - Melon Grapefruit Fat Blaster
Are you looking for a smoothie that isn’t too sweet yet not too sour? 
There’s nothing more refreshing than melon-grapefruit juice. The good thing about this juice is that you can blend it any time of the day- for example, for a morning kick, you can choose to add a tablespoon of honey and on a sunny evening, blend a little ice in for an icy cold taste. It’s more of a personal preference here.
The nutrients rich smoothie combines two main fruits; the melon and grapefruit. Grapefruit works magic in cleansing the liver and the kidney as well as reducing cholesterol. It also enhances your digestive health by easing constipation. In addition, grapes act as a great source of vitamin C which is such a powerful antioxidant to remove toxins and boost your immune system. They may also help in treating migraines and depression.
Smoothie lovers will love to add melon whenever the fruit is available (their season tend to be short-lived you know). This fruit doesn’t have a strong taste but is a good source of potassium and niacin. Additionally, it’s full of fiber to keep you full with just a glass. If you need a cool and refreshing fruity taste, then you can’t go wrong with any smoothie that contains a melon.
