Several people have emailed me asking for a recipe to combat psoriasis. For those unfamiliar with psoriasis, it’s a common skin condition characterized by skin redness and irritation. Most people with psoriasis have thick, red skin with flaky, silver-white patches called scales. It’s also considered a chronic inflammatory skin disease.
While researching this condition I uncovered many possible solutions to alleviating psoriasis. The one thing that can be addressed via smoothies is inflammation, which is precisely what this smoothie is designed for.
Two of my favorite fruits are in season here in Michigan and I can’t get enough of them :)
Trips to the farmer’s market are extra rewarding this time of year. While walking home with bags full of fresh, local food, feelings of gratitude abound. Remember, fresh tastes best!
Cherries and blueberries tickle your taste buds and are known to benefit your health in the following ways.
Indulge in this delicious, nutritious, filling, and dare I say amazing treat of a smoothie!
All the credit for this fabulous recipe goes to Ana, a fellow smoothie enthusiast, and chocolate lover. While exchanging emails about smoothies, chocolate, and good food she was kind enough to share this recipe with me, and now the smoothie world. She even supplied the beautiful image to the right. Thanks, Ana!
This dreamy smoothie is similar to the one’s I make for breakfast. It’s loaded with nutrition and macronutrients to keep you full of energy and satiated until lunch. There’s plenty of healthy fat, ample protein, and it’s low in sugar – a winning combo in my book.
What would I do without my raw milk, or as like to call it, white gold. Raw milk and the kefir I make with it are staples in my diet.
Real raw milk from grass-fed cows is a complete food that you could live on exclusively if you had to. It contains proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, cholesterol, and beneficial bacteria.
Some of the amazing health benefits of raw milk include boosting the immune system, strengthening teeth and bones, and helping children grow up to be strong and healthy. It’s been shown to alleviate asthma and allergies, and help resolve digestive issues, arthritis, and osteoporosis among other things.
This smoothie is dedicated to an old colleague and friend, Todd, aka T-Mac.
Todd and I are both workout warriors and love to play basketball. When we get on the same team, watch out :)
To fuel our active lifestyles we need plenty of nutrient dense foods and nutritionally loaded smoothies. This smoothie was designed to replenish your body after an intense workout or for a complete breakfast.
