Carolina Cerezuela and Carlos Moyá propose us on this occasion two delicious smoothies made with the exquisite Zespri kiwifruit. Do you dare to prepare them?
Just a few days ago Carolina Cerezuela and Carlos Moyá revealed their best-kept health secret: two smoothies that they both consume daily and that have Zespri kiwis as their main ingredient. But although the ex-tennis player and the presenter practically do everything together, it is true that in the case of smoothies they prefer to go separately.
Why? While for Carolina it is essential to feel light and take care of her figure, choosing for this the Zespri Green kiwi (low in calories, rich in actinide and high in fiber), Carlos, a born athlete, is looking for an extra dose of energy to help him to perform at your best in your workouts, for which you choose Zespri Sun Gold (slightly tropical sweet taste and high in vitamin C).
If you want to enjoy Zespri kiwis in a different way, and as Carlos Moyá and Carolina Cerezuela do every day, we encourage you to prepare their delicious smoothie recipes below. You dare?. Of course, it is essential that for its preparation you always choose the fruit that is at its optimum ripeness point.

Zespri Green and Zespri Sun Gold: two varieties of kiwi very rich in essential nutrients
As recommended and advised by many nutritionists, including fruits and vegetables in our daily diet is essential when it comes to enjoying optimal functioning of our body. A very good example is the Zespri kiwifruit, which in either of its two delicious varieties (Zespri Green and Zespri Sun Gold) stand out precisely for their health benefits.
For example, Zespri Green stands out for its green pulp and intense flavor with a refreshing acid touch. It helps to enjoy an adequate digestive well-being thanks to its high fiber content, since it provides 3 grams for every 100 grams of kiwi. It also contains actinide, an enzyme that we only find in kiwis and that acts in a very beneficial way by facilitating the digestion of proteins contained in other foods, such as milk or meat.
On the other hand, we find the exquisite variety Zespri Sun Gold, with yellow pulp, sweet taste and tremendously juicy, which among its most outstanding properties has a high amount of vitamin C, providing 161.3 mg. for every 100 grams of kiwi (three times more than the same amount of orange). This vitamin is essential for our body because it helps us to strengthen the immune system, protects our cells from oxidative stress and reduces both tiredness and fatigue.
