However, New Year is also the season of coughs & colds, not great when you want to be out there exercising.

So to help boost the immune system and ward off such lurgies, we’re advised to increase our intake of Vitamin C. 

Well, guess what? Gram for gram watercress contains more vitamin C than an orange. 

Added to that, watercress also boasts high levels of iron, but what is less known is that for the body to absorb the iron found in plants, there needs to be a large amount of vitamin C present. 

Clearly, watercress ticks this box so anyone eating watercress can fully benefit from its iron content too.

Also, you need it if you’re increasing exercise rates as part of your new regime; iron deficiency results in exhaustion and lack of energy – not much help if you’re taking up running for the first time. 

Watercress Breakfast Smoothie Bowl Recipe To Try And Increase Your Vitamin C:

By adding another couple of handfuls of watercress to every meal you’ll get the iron and vitamin C boost you need. However, there’s more! 

Scientific evidence has proved that thanks to the compound, Phenethylisothiocyanate (PEITC), which occurs in especially high levels in watercress, (it’s what gives it its distinctive peppery taste).

DNA damage caused by excessive exercise can be reduced, while it also aids recovery meaning you can be back out there pounding the pavements sooner!

So now you know why watercress should play a part in any new healthy regime, here ais a recipe that will make you want it to and at every meal!

Method:

1. Step One: Firstly, to make the smoothie simply place all ingredients into a high-powered blender or smoothie maker and blitz until smooth.  Check the consistency is to your liking and add a little more pineapple juice if you prefer a thinner smoothie. At this stage, the smoothie can be kept in the fridge for up to two days or frozen for up to one month.
2. Step Two: To serve, pour into a cereal bowl and decorate by arranging the fruit and seeds on top in any way you like. Why not experiment by adding different fruits, berries, or even edible flowers and herbs?
3. Tip: Use frozen mango to ensure that your smoothie comes out of the blender nicely and chilled.
