Easily digestible fruits like banana are highly recommended for UC, especially since banana is a popular gut-soothing fruit. The bromelain in pineapple, meanwhile, may help reduce inflammation. The apple and spinach add more vitamins and minerals to this already-nutritious smoothie.

½ small banana

½ medium apple, cubed

¼ cup frozen pineapple,

Spinach (a handful or as desired)

½ cup lactose-free coconut yogurt

¼ cup nut or coconut milk

1. Wash thoroughly and drip-dry spinach.

2. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend to a smooth consistency.

3. Transfer into a tall glass and enjoy cold.
