Do you start your day with caffeine and sugar? Then just rush out the door? Ugh. I used to do that until I got educated. The first thing that you eat in the morning is very important.<\/p>\n

Many of my friends are beginning to take their health more seriously. So, I thought they might be interested in how I start my mornings. I begin with a delicious smoothie that I make in my blender. I also take 10 vitamin and mineral supplements. Sounds like a lot? They are easy to wash down with this delicious smoothie recipe.<\/p>\n

\"good<\/p>\n

Smoothies are easy to make. It’s not an exact recipe. I use the following ingredients:
\nFrozen berries or other frozen fruit like mango
\nBanana
\nUnsweetened Non GMO Almond milk<\/a>
\nKefir<\/a> – Probiotic
\nPea Protein powder<\/a>
\nKale, spinach or other green leaf vegetable<\/a>
\nand Bea Bread<\/a> [bee pollen or royal jelly]
\nJust whiz it all up in a blender.<\/p>\n

A list of the supplements I take are:
\nIsotonix\u00ae OPC-3\u00ae<\/a> – a combination of highly potent antioxidants
\nIsotonix\u00ae Vitamin D with K2<\/a>\u00a0 – for vascular health and calcium utilization
\nUltimate Woman 50+ Multivitamin<\/a> – important to cover all the basics
\nCurcumin Extreme\u2122<\/a> – anti-inflammatory and joint health
\nCo-Q10 – cardiovascular and immune health
\nOmega III Fish Oil with Vitamin E – mood and cardiovascular health
\nFlax seed Oil -antioxidant and heart health
\nMagnesium – overall health [too many reasons to list here!]<\/p>\n

These supplements have been selected for me by Jean Cornell<\/a> – Natural Health and Well-being Coach. I highly recommend her. Jean also advised me on the ingredients of this morning smoothie.<\/p>\n
