For those who don't always feel like or have the time for an elaborate breakfast, preparing one can sometimes be a challenge for some, but with this hormone-friendly breakfast smoothie, it's a nice and quick way to start your day nutritiously. Many traditional smoothies contain mainly fruit, which can cause a rapid blood sugar spike. This smoothie contains a combination of carbohydrates, healthy fats, and protein. A nice balance to start your morning off on a stable note.
What makes a green breakfast smoothie so healthy:
- The combination of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins ensures long-lasting satiety, making this an ideal smoothie to start your day with.
- By adding vegetables and protein powder (such as collagen), your breakfast contains essential building blocks for your body.
- Proteins and collagen contribute to the maintenance of your muscles and bones, but also of your skin, hair, and nails.
