If you are on the go like me and eat good food fast, a smoothie can cover all the essentials. So what I mean by that is you all know you need to have greens in your life and you might not want to eat it because of the taste or you just can't find the time. So you can put some greens in your smoothie just like that. OK, And maybe you don't like the taste of it. So what you could do is add some blueberries, and blueberries will definitely help with that. Make sure you're getting organic blueberries. Just get a handful of blueberries and put that in there right now. If you want some, you know, you want a little bit of a taste of like chocolate or vanilla. Then add some protein, right, some protein powder. So I try to get stuff that is super clean and I'll put a scoop of that in there and I'll try something that has very few ingredients, very low sugar or no sugar at all, hopefully and very low carbs. So that's kind of what I look for in my protein. OK, next thing I want to do maybe is I might want to add some fiber to keep my blood sugar stable. So I'm going to add some flaxseed. OK, so I've got flaxseed here. Next thing I might want to do is add a little bit more some seeds to add some energy. So chia seeds are great for some energy, sustained energy and good fiber as well. And hemp seeds are also something you could add. These are just examples of something you could do. OK. The other thing I like to do is add some collagen. It's good protein and it will just keep you full longer. That's what protein does for you. Also helps with recovery, obviously, and I love to add a little bit of creatine. So creatine is something your body makes naturally and it's really good for your brain. So research it. But there's very little or very there's no evidence that I've seen that shows creatine as being a bad thing to put in you. So I've always do about you can look it up but maybe about 5g or so of creatine and put it in your smoothie and you can do it any time of the day, it does not matter. And then I want some good fats so I'm going to have maybe 1/2 of 1/2 of an have Ocado, so 1/4 of an avocado and I'll just take a good scoop of it and this will add some really good fats and again keep you full for a long period of time. Now depending on the consistency you can add more or less water. You can also add almond milk if you like dairy and that agrees with you, you could add some milk. I like to just do water here and the more water the less creamy it will be. The avocado will make it a little bit thicker. Consistency and obviously the amount of water I add, but this should be pretty good and you could add other things in this too. This is just an example, but cinnamon is another one you could add and I'm just going to put it in the ninja here. And. I am good to go. This smoothie is packed with tons of nutrients but also has great combination of protein, fats and some carbohydrates. Keep me full for a long period of time. So cheers to your health and hopefully that helped.
