Feel low on energy and need a boost? Feel you need
To detox and trying to get in your five a day? The green smoothie craze has rubbed on me and I'm willing to keep it up once I'm getting an energy boost from it! The pictures below show what I put into it and I got it all for less than €5.00 at Aldi Ireland though the coconut water is from Marks and Spencer.
To complete the green smoothie I took a trip to The Good Food Shop in the English Market and got some Goji berries and a Superfood mix. I got some Chia seeds from Quay Co-Op Café. The packets are big and will last for a good while.They tasted lovely with the smoothie and will give you an automatic lift.These smoothies are perfect if you are constantly on the go like myself!
Goji Berries are from a native Chinese shrub and are full of nutrients including amino acids and vitamins. It is thought they have benefits in mental well being and athletic performance.
Chia seeds help hunger while making sure you are getting the right nutrients in your diet. They are high in OMEGA 3, fibre, antioxidants, and protein.
The Superfood Mix that I got in The Good Food shop contains cacao, macs, kelp, hemp,spirulina, cholorella, barley grass and Lucuma. This is 8 nutrients in one serving which are full of iron protein and OMega 3. One tablespoon of this can be consumer with a smoothie, coconut water or juice.
Definitely try out out this green juice diet even for a while to see if it makes a difference. Breakfast time is the best time to have this to give you a good start to the day. Happy Juicing!!! :-)
