Ultra Nourishing Kale Smoothie

This smoothie was created by Brooke Goldner, MD who wrote Goodbye Lupus. She had incorporated this to increase her cruciferous vegetable intake and for its anti-inflammatory benefits. This amazing smoothie has also helped me in my own health. It boosts energy and lowers inflammation. I can’t think of a week without making this smoothie. It is jam packed with kale and is high in omega-3s with flax and chia seeds. I’ve added an assortment of berries to increase the antioxidant intake and cardamon to enhance the cancer fighting properties of blueberries. I’ve also added amla powder to increase the antioxidants. This is one powerful smoothie.

Items I used to make this smoothie

• These whole flaxseeds help reduce inflammation since they are high in omega-3s and rid your body of access estrogen. Also best to use whole flaxseeds in smoothies as ground has lost some of its’ benefits due to oxidation.
• Amla powder or indian gooseberry is one of the highest antioxidant fruits, rich in vitamin C and an important food in Ayurvedic medicine.
• Chia Seeds are also high in omega-3s and great source of fiber and protein.
• Cardamom powder enhances the cancer fighting effects of blueberries.
• I’ve been using this blender for all my smoothies and nut butters. I found this model to be the most versatile because of its’ shape. You can make large badges or small ones. It’s great at breaking down seeds and large vegetables. Plus smoothies are nice and creamy.
