It’s been exactly 1 year, since I’ve had any type of cold or illness. I think my immune system stays so strong because of the way I eat. Several times per week I make this super smoothie that is full of nutrients I don’t think I would be able to fit in any other way. It sounds (and kind of looks) gross but it actually tastes amazing. As soon as I wake up, I have a cup of hot lemon water, then a scoop of Athletic Greens mixed with water, a green tea, and then either oatmeal or my super smoothie.
The smoothie contains the following:
1 banana (Potassium, energy, sweetness)
1-2 handfuls of spinach or kale (Iron, chlorophyl, Vitamin C, +++)
1 cup frozen berries (Antioxidants)
1 tbs. flax oil (Omegas)
1 tsp. liquid calcium
1tsp. chia seeds (Omegas)
1 tbs. molasses (Iron…especially good if you don’t eat much red meat)
1 tsp cinnamon (Revs up metabolism)
1 tsp. turmeric (natural anti-inflammatory)
1tbs. goji berries (Superfood-Antioxidant)
1/3 cup of soft tofu (Protein)
1 brasil nut (Selenium)
8 oz. of rice, almond, soy milk, or apple juice
Try it and let me know what you think. I’d love to hear your feedback.
Here’s to your health!
