The best recipe for The Best Smoothie EVER

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I decided to mix it up a little. Every morning I make a green smoothie… usually with mango, pineapple, spinach and a bunch of “add-ins” such as chia, hemp and spirulina. It’s what I crave and I miss it on days that I don’t make it. However, I wanted to break out of the norm and try something new! I’m sure glad I did because this smoothie recipe is a keeper!

It’s a testament to the power of plant-based foods and their ability to improve our health. So why not give it a try? You might just find that it’s the best smoothie you’ve ever had!

The Power of Goji Berries

One of the key ingredients in this smoothie is the goji berry, also known as the wolfberry. This bright red berry, native to China, has been used medicinally for thousands of years. It’s a powerful antioxidant that minimizes damage from free radicals.

Research shows, that goji berries can increase athletic performance, happiness, and overall wellbeing.

Goji berries also boost immunity, circulation, and stimulate the pituitary gland to produce HGH (human growth hormone), which makes us look and feel younger. Who doesn’t want that?

Goji berries can be found in most healthfood stores or online. If you’re feeling adventurous give them a try… you won’t be sorry!

Note: goji berries interact with blood thinners such as warfarin so please don’t try if you take this or a similar medication. And as with all medicinal foods…always check with your doctor first!
