Gut Boosting Protein Smoothie
I created this recipe using digestion-boosting, nutrient-rich ingredients to give your gut and entire body all the goodness it needs, while tasting as good as a waistline friendly Haagen-Dazs milkshake!
This smoothie isn’t just delicious; it’s a total nutritional powerhouse! Packed with 30g of protein, fibre, antioxidants, omega-3’s, vitamins, minerals, and even probiotics.
It’s the ultimate fuel for a healthy gut, while also helping to build muscle mass, boost immunity, fight inflammation, give glowing skin, and keep you full and satisfied for hours.
It’s perfect for a light, yet incredibly filling breakfast, a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, or a post-workout refuel.
Let me know if you try it. Trust me you won’t regret it!
