Special Smoothies
Below are 7 different healthy smoothies
that are really fun to make!
Smoothies are a great way to start your day. They provide servings of fruit and vegetables, fiber, antioxidants and protein (when added).
Try adding a few scoops of quality protein such as hemp or brown
rice protein to these smoothies.
You may also want to add some of our Special Fiber Blend
to the smoothie for added fiber for your daily diet!
You can also open up 3 - 6 capsules of our Super
Antioxidant Greens and add that in as well for an antioxidant
boost! Of course, using organic ingredients whenever possible
will provide the best nutrition for your body.
