Blood Sugar Friendly Smoothie

Smoothies are an amazing quick & easy way to incorporate a whole bunch of fibre into your diet, which essentially acts like a sweep throughout your digestive tract and feeds beneficial bacteria, which create anti-inflammatory compounds and neurotransmitters in our gut! (Side note, no blending fruit and veg does not ruin the fibre content- this is a rumour spread on social media). We can also bump up our smoothie level by adding protein and healthy fats to support stable blood sugar levels and our metabolism throughout the day.

-       Fruit of choice (e.g., mango, strawberry, blueberries)

-       20g / 2Tbsp Collagen

-       Half an avocado

-       1-2 teaspoons of chia seeds

-       Water or coconut water

-       Knob of ginger

-       1 Tbsp Cacao

-       1 Tbsp nut butter

-       Dash of cinnamon (fabulous at stabilising blood sugar, especially in PCOS)

Blend it all up & enjoy for stable energy.
