Smoothie for breakfast is a woman's best friend

Pink dragonfruit smoothies for the gram are not it.

A health packed smoothe that gives you an extended fasting period and well rounded nutrient intake can change your life.

Smoothie formula for a health upgrade

• 16+ oz. filtered water

• Greens

  • I do mixed power greens and a greens powder that has algaes and other colored vegetables/ fruits

• Healthy fats

  • Chia seeds, coconut milk

• Protein 15-30grams

  • Find your favorite protein powder that is plant based such as hemp protein or pea protein

  • I go for a full spectrum unique product that gives you 15 g of protein, your daily multivitamin, daily mineral and electrolytes

    • I add hemp seeds for added protein and maybe some nut butter

• Low glycemic, high antioxdant/polupohenol fruit

  • Wild blueberries, cherries

    • wild blueberries are smaller, giving them a lesser sugar content due to the skin/fruit ratio

Drink this over an hour or so and it will satirate you for 2-4 hours. You can still eat another easily digestible, nutrient rich breakfast item after the smoothie.

Think of this smoothie ritual as your daily insurance. You have supported your body with the best start possible for blood sugar regulation, protein intake, deep hydration, nutrient stores and natural detoxification.

• Under 25 grams of protein and the blended aspect allows your body to continue AMPK-aka the pathway that allows the body to be in a fasted state. This is a way you can get the benefits of fasting while actually nourishing yourself versus just a depleted feeling that can happen when you live a pretty average, busy, stress impacted life.

• The early protein intake that is easy to digest is key. Daily protein intake of 60-100 grams per day is game changing for women’s health and making it easily digestible at certain times of day will improve gut motility, blood sugar and overall digestibility/inflammatory response.

• Hydration is an entire world upon itself. The combination of chia seeds, plants, water and electrolytes makes it more than just water-it creates a cascade of goodness resulting in a structured water that results in a hydration that could literally keep you hydrated through a marathon in high altitide and hot weather. Get it!

Lastly, eating with breaks of 3-4 hours is ideal for blood sugar regulation, easfeul digestion and longevity. We need breaks and this smoothie sets you up for healthy eating the entire day.

Try this for 2w eeks and let me know what you notice is different!
