Stabilizing Smoothie

My dad, a chiropractor with a PhD in nutritional sciences, has recommended this healthy-fat-antioxidant smoothie to his patients with great success.

Avoiding a spike in insulin (through overconsumption of fruits and grains) will improve gut health, weight loss, brain fog, joint pain and low energy.

So why not include this healthy, creamy, and blood-sugar-stabilizing smoothie into your diet?

INGREDIENTS:

- 1 1/4 cups frozen organic cherries (or strawberries)

- 1/2 cup organic frozen blueberries

- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I like this brand)

- 1 ripe avocado

- 1/4 cup chia seed gel (make it like this)

- 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon

- 2 cups coconut milk (this kind or this kind)

- 1 tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil

- (Optional: to increase benefits add 1 capsule of NAC (Cysteplus) and/or 2 tablespoons pomegranate elixade or juice)

DIRECTIONS:

1.  Add all ingredients (except coconut oil) in a high-speed blender, and blend until smooth.

2.  Continue blending, and carefully add coconut oil, and blend until extra creamy and smooth.

Serve immediately and enjoy!
