Yummy Wake-Up Smoothie

Posted by laurel 8 July, 2009 Comments Off

I actually gave myself enough time to get ready this morning (ha!), so I whipped up a smoothie to give me some energy for a long day at work. It turned out delicious and I wanted to share it with you.

If you try it, I hope you enjoy!

I bought my dried organic goji berries from Whole Foods, but you can find them online if you don’t have a health food store nearby. They’re an amazing superfood. If you want to learn more about them, check out this youtube video with superfood expert David Wolfe.

New Blueberry Research

University of Michigan scientists recently presented their new preliminary study in the Experimental Biology convention. They found that a low fat, blueberry-rich diet will help reduce belly fat, cholesterol levels, total body weight, and the total amount of fat in your blood. Previous research studies found that the antioxidants in blueberries help keep fat out of your blood stream. (Ref: Body + Soul Magazine, July/August 2009, p. 33). For more on this research, check out NaturalNews (one of my favorite holistic health sites).

Take advantage of the abundance of fresh blueberries available right now. They’re also cheaper than any other time in the year!
