Green Smoothie Bowl

We all want to start our day with energy, positivity and vitality, yet so many people aren't having this experience. You might be one of them. 

Health conditions, stress, poor diet and lifestyle choices, environmental factors and more can burden us, and 7am can start to feel like the end of a long, hard day instead of the beginning of a fresh, new one!

Fortunately, there is much that we can do to help turn morning (or anytime) fatigue and blues around, and the recipe I have to share with you today is one tool that can help.

The combination of fresh fruit and greens in this recipe provides you with a vast array of healing antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamins and minerals that will nourish and cleanse your cells, tissues and organs, and infuse your body with more energy and vitality. The addition of barley grass juice extract powder adds further health benefits and healing properties.

Starting your day with this smoothie bowl, or enjoying it for lunch or as a snack, is an incredible way to boost the nutrition in your diet and more deeply cleanse and support the health of your body. Whether you are taking one small step at a time to improve your health, or doing the cleanse diet I outline in my book Medical Medium, this is a great addition to your routine. 

The base of this smoothie bowl is creamy, sweet and refreshing with a hint of tartness. If the addition of greens scares you, don't worry! You can hardly taste them in this recipe but you'll still receive their benefits. The different flavors and textures of the toppings give you something to bite into, making this smoothie bowl a really fun eating experience! 

I hope you love this recipe.
