So I wanted to share this smoothie recipe with you because I drink it almost every morning if I can and it makes me feel so good for the whole day when I get to enjoy this smoothie in the morning. It leaves me feeling energized, nourished, alert and happy :) The reason for this is probably that it contains LOADS of super foods. This is a cup full of all the healthy stuff I put in to my smoothie every day
Flax: Everyone knows how great flax is for you. It has omega 3 essential fatty acids to help remove bad fats from the body, lignans with plant estrogen (good for the ladies) and antioxidant qualities, and FIBRE to get those bowels working.
Chia seeds: stabilizes the blood sugar to fight off that fat belly, and did I mention one serving has 11 GRAMS OF FIBRE? We love fibre.
Lecithin: Emulsifies fat. Do I need to tell you more? I know you don't care about anything else but it protects the liver, promotes smooth glowing skin, and helps brain funciton.
Brewers Yeast: rich in protein, fibre and B vitamins (which us girls need a lot of)
Molasses: ORGANIC Molasses is a thick natural sweetener, it makes your smoothie taste SO YUMMY. Very rich in many vitamins and minerals including calcium, magnesium and potassium. Helps prevent nast looking acne skin, regulates your period, and prevents excema to name a few benefits.
Maca: Boost your libido ;)
