It’s high in fiber, which prevents constipation. Additionally, it contains natural digestive enzymes that help to break down hard to digest foods that can cause bloating.
If you tried and LOVED this Flat Tummy Anti-Inflammatory Smoothie/Cocktail (errr, yes we also made it into a cocktail version – don’t do that with this one!) they have very similar ingredients, so you’re sure to enjoy this smoothie by Brett Hoebel.
Our testers used whole flax seeds instead of ground, which of course you can do in a power blender since most of them are able to quickly grind flax seeds for you!
They also really loved the ginger and pineapple flavor together.

BLENDER BABES RECIPE TESTER NOTES
“My husband really liked it and said the taste was good (and he’s pretty picky with smoothies!)”
“I really like the health benefits of this smoothie, that it’s high in fiber which everyone can always use more of, as well as the gut benefits with the natural digestive enzymes”.
PAPAYA HEALTH BENEFITS
Papaya is a fruit that is extremely rich in Vitamin C and has a wide range of health benefits that make it a great choice to add to your diet.
1. Lowers cholesterol. Papaya is loaded with antioxidants that prevent cholesterol build up in your arteries.
2. Helps in weight loss. Papaya is very low in calories. Its high fiber content leaves you feeling full and will clear your bowels making your weight loss regime much easier.
3. Boosts your immunity. A single papaya contains more than 200% of your daily requirement of Vitamin C, making it great for your immunity system that acts as a shield against various infections that can make you sick.
The combination doesn’t sound so bad. Seems like it would be tasty.
this combination of ingredients sounds delicious!!
Just woke up and saw this recipe…guess what’s for breakfast this morning!! Really looks and sounds delicious. I love papaya and pineapple. I would try it with a mango too perhaps.
Yes Penny! Love the idea of adding mango to this flat-belly smoothie recipe! Let us know how it turns out. 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
oh that sounds so good,I love anything with pineapple,,yum!.. I liked & shared the facebook post as well 🙂
Yes, I like the combination of ingredients because they are all delicious on their own.
I’m not a fan of papaya, so I’m not sure I’d like this. I’d probably sub another fruit in place of it.
I’ve never had papaya in a smoothie but this sounds amazing!
Excited to try the combination of ingredients, it reminds me of a smoothie I had while on my honeymoon in Mexico 🙂
Sounds like a lovely honeymoon Julie! 🙂
These ingredients sound delicious to me!!
i think this combination of ingredients sounds delicious! I love trying new recipes.
Looks great! Papaya and ginger are good for digestion!
I have water retention,so will this smoothie work? If so I’m gonna have one everyday!!!
We are not doctors so we don’t know how it will work with your water retention. Please try it and let us know how it works for you Sally. 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
I love all the ingredients! Because I already eat some of these ingredients in other smoothies.
I just love papaya in smoothies! I usually pair it with banana, so beautifully sweet. Pears do have some bloating properties though. Otherwise, sounds pretty good 🙂
