Immunity Boosting Wellness Berry Delicious Smoothie

So, you’ve been following us on socials (thank you, by the way!), and you might have seen my amazing immunity-boosting smoothie pop up in your feed recently. Well, guess what? I’m spilling all the juicy (and healthy!) details on what goes into this powerhouse drink and why it’s a non-negotiable part of my daily routine.

You'll find the full ingredients and recipe breakdown at the bottom of the Blog.

The Ingredients & Their Superpowers:

1. Frozen Blueberries, Boysenberries, Cranberries, Pineapple: These berries and fruit are like tiny superheroes! They’re packed with antioxidants that fight off free radicals and inflammation, keeping your immune system in tip-top shape. Plus, they’re loaded with vitamin C, which is basically your immune system’s best friend.

2. Frozen Feijoa: This tropical beauty is a vitamin C powerhouse and full of dietary fiber, giving your digestion and immune system the support they need to keep you feeling fantastic. We have two incredible tree's in the back garden, but we couldn't keep up with how much fruit came off, our solution, freeze them for smoothies - genius you say? Why thank you we thought so.

4. Frozen Banana: Bananas bring the power of potassium, fiber, and natural sugars to the table. They help regulate blood pressure, support heart health, and provide a quick energy boost – plus, they add that creamy texture we all love in a smoothie! We buy a huge box for $20 from our local dairy, peel and freeze!

5. Ginger: Spicy and oh-so-good for you! Ginger is a natural anti-inflammatory and digestion champion. It’s like giving your immune system a fiery boost while keeping your tummy happy.

6. Vital All-in-One Greens Powder: This is your all-in-one nutrient bomb. It’s packed with vitamins, minerals, and probiotics – all the essentials your body needs to stay energized and ready to tackle anything. I feel so fatigued if I don't have this daily.

7. Honey: Sweet and soothing, honey not only makes this smoothie delicious but also brings natural antibacterial properties to the mix, giving your immune system a little extra TLC.

8. Pumpkin Seeds & Almonds: These crunchy additions are rich in zinc, magnesium, and healthy fats, all of which support a healthy immune response and overall well-being.

9. Chia Seeds & Flaxseeds: Tiny but mighty (which funny story is my nickname)! These seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, promoting a healthy gut (which is key for a strong immune system) and reducing inflammation.

10. Bovine Collagen Powder: Not just for your skin! Collagen supports joint health, helps with muscle recovery, and even boosts gut health, all of which contribute to keeping your immune system strong.

11. Plant-Based Protein Powder: Delicious and nutritious! This plant-based protein helps with muscle recovery and keeps you full and satisfied – plus, it tastes amazing! I stay away from Whey simply because it makes me gassy, and no-one want's that, trust me!

12. KiriGlow Capsules: Last but definitely not least, KiriGlow is my secret weapon. Packed with Functional Keratin, these capsules support healthy hair, skin, nails, and overall wellness – because when you look good, you feel good! Because the outer casing is vege based I throw them in whole, no fuss needed!

Why I Love This Smoothie:

Incorporating this smoothie into my daily routine isn’t just about sipping something tasty (although that’s a big plus!). It’s about giving my body the nutrients it needs to stay healthy, energized, and ready to take on whatever comes my way. Whether it’s fighting off the latest bug or just keeping my energy levels up, this smoothie is my morning go-to.

So, why not give it a try and see how amazing you feel? Here’s to health, happiness, and delicious smoothies!
