This recipe is adapted from a great book I’m reading called “The Hormone Diet” by Natasha Turner, Naturopathic Doctor. It is anti-aging, satisfying (keeps cravings away) and a delicious breakfast idea!
1 serving hemp protein powder (or brown rice protein powder)
1/2 cup raspberries
1/2 cup blueberries
1/2 cup strawberries
1/4 cup blackberries
1 cup water
2 tsp flaxseed oil – for your Essential Fatty Acids
Place all the ingredients into a blender and blend at high speed until smooth. Garnish with some mint and a berry on top! Make sure you use all organic ingredients because berries are highly sprayed with chemicals – pesticides and fertilizers. You will avoid genetic modification as well aka super-strawberries. See my post on genetic modification!

Joyous
Yeah, this is a really great drink. I’ve had this many times.
I actually find adding spinach to it doesn’t affect the taste and yet you get even more benefits.
Good stuff Joy.
Thanks, great idea! Love the spinach add-on
Try a piece of ginger too. And maybe even a dash of cayenne pepper. That’ll wake you up in the morning
Doesn’t the protein powder make you put on weight?
Hi Athena,
Not fat mass. Protein helps build lean tissue, keep cravings away and blood sugar balanced. So in fact, it keeps your waistline trim!
