Super Duper Healthy Shake (Antioxidant/Anti-Inflammatory/ Vegetarian)

I am absolutely enamored with Super Spices right now, especially Turmeric. I plan on doing a post very soon that explains the benefits of the top herbs and spices for holistic health. This is a smoothy that I like to have in the mornings that covers so many health issues and offers so many benefits that I would recommend it to anyone looking to better their overall health




Ingredients

1/2 cup of Green Tea, chilled 

1/2 cup of Coconut Water

1/2 cup mixed berries (Frozen is my choice)

1 scoop of protein powder *

2 teaspoons of Chia Seed Gel 

1/2 Tablespoon of MCT Liquid Coconut Oil *

2 teaspoons of Raw Honey (or more to taste)

1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper

1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon

dash of Himalayan Pink Salt (or any high quality salt)

Instructions

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until mixed and smooth.  One of my favorite kitchen gadgets is the Magic Bullet.  It is a convenient way to make a single serving shake or smoothy and the clean up is simple.  Rinse, add some some and warm water…..blend and then rinse.  Voila!







I like to use Optimum Hydrolyzed Platinum Whey which offers 30 grams of Protein per scoop 






This is the Brand of Coconut Oil that I use.  Since it doesn't solidify it is great for smoothies
