        Absolutely. Fruits are healthy. But keep it to 1 to max 2 portions of (any) fruit daily.

      I love this January seasonal produce section. I'm a big fan of grapefruit and I was able to get a great smoothie recipe. By the way was so good and my new favorite smoothie. I can't wait to try more of the recipes this January. Thank you
