Level Up Your Smoothies

How can you level up your smoothie??

I always aim to pack each meal with as many whole food nutrients as I can, and smoothies are no different. They’re actually one of the easiest meals to fill with veggies, protein, fiber and fat. (Here’s looking at those healthy mamas packing their kid’s smoothies with all the things!)

Some ideas here are full fat coconut milk to help you stay satiated longer. Collagen peptides to help with skin, nails, and hair. Nut butter for natural protein. Power greens to start your day with vitamin and mineral rich leafy greens. Chia seeds which are loaded with antioxidants. Flaxseeds that are loaded with essential fatty acid omega-3 and fiber. Cinnamon that has anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal properties. Turmeric which has anti-inflammatory effects. Beets which have a ton of health benefits including improved blood flow, lowering blood pressure and helping with detoxification. Berries are your best base option as they are low glycemic fruits filled with antioxidants and fiber and could help improve blood sugar, insulin resistance and lower cholesterol.

Honestly the options are unlimited! Get creative with your smoothies and se how you can level up your meals.
