In these uniquely uncertain times, (with worries of unwanted germs everywhere, and social distancing potentially causing higher stress levels), it’s never been more important and essential to keep your immune system strong – and your overall health intact. Not only is it still flu season, but it’s also allergy season, so your body is going to need an extra boost of immune-boosting foods to build up your defenses, so you feel your best!
The good news is that healthy and vitamin-packed choices can also be very tasty! If a “green smoothie” immediately makes you envision a beverage that tastes very undesirable, think again. You can deliciously fuel your body with the nutrients it needs to help fight off sickness and disease, while satisfying your sugar cravings with this yummy, fruity shake that tastes like a mixed berry tart!
Made with your choice of 310 Strawberry Shake or 310 Vanilla Shake, 310 Mixed Berry Juice, unsweetened almond milk, mixed berries, and chia seeds, this protein smoothie is a superfood-packed treat that makes an energizing meal for any time of day. With 19g of protein, 7g of healthy fats, and over 70 fruit- and veggie-superfoods in every serving, this Antioxidant Juice Berry Shake is the drink equivalent to an amazingly nutrient-dense, empowering meal.
Read on for the full recipe and some amazing health benefits of his antioxidant shake…
Healthy Pantry Staple: 310 Shake
Whether you choose to use 310 Strawberry Shake or 310 Vanilla Shake in this recipe, these meal replacement powders will give your drink immense flavor, all while being sugar-free! Sweetened solely with plant-based Stevia, you can use 310 Strawberry to bring out delicate berry notes or 310 Vanilla for a well-rounded vanilla bean sweetness.
Either way, 310 Shakes not only add creaminess and thickness to this smoothie recipe, but they’re also a great source of plant-based proteins, dietary fiber, essential vitamins and minerals, and gut-healthy probiotics.
With a blend of pea, brown rice, and hemp proteins, 310 Shakes can help ensure you stay on track with your health and weight loss goals, especially while currently spending much more time indoors and needing extra assistance to make healthy food choices.
To ensure 310 Shakes are nutrient dense and meet all your micronutrient needs, essential vitamins, minerals, and superfoods are added. Vitamins A and E are especially known to help boost immunity, while minerals calcium, magnesium, and potassium promote strong, healthy bones. Additionally, 1 billion CFU of probiotics are included to give your gut the good bacteria it needs – which is also extremely beneficial for maintaining a healthy immune system.
Antioxidant-Packed Drink: 310 Mixed Berry Juice
Next, if you’re looking to increase your daily fruit and veggie consumption, 310 Mixed Berry Juice is a convenient, easy, and tasty way to do this! This green juice powder contains over 70 superfoods in each serving, along with digestive enzymes and probiotics to support an optimally-functioning digestive system.
This amazing green juice also offers powerful antioxidants to help fight free radicals that can leave your body vulnerable to sickness. To keep your cells and immune system healthy, antioxidant-rich foods are crucial – and you should ideally eat them every day! When it gets tough to get in all your greens, or you don't have access to fresh fruit and vegetables (which is very common right now), this juice powder can help you get the extra, body-boosting nutrients you need.
Plus, once again, don’t be scared off by the word “green” in this beverage… This 310 Berry Juice is incredibly fruity with notes of strawberry, raspberries, and blackberries that pair especially well with the frozen mixed berries included in this shake recipe!
Fiber-Packed Plant Protein: Chia Seeds
Lastly, chia seeds are an incredible ingredient to add to your shakes for added texture and thickness. They’re also an amazing plant-based food for you, literally bursting with healthy fats, protein, and fiber to help prolong satiety and support brain and heart health! These tiny yet mighty seeds have a slightly mild, nutty flavor that’s subtle and can therefore be included in any shake recipe to increase the health factor and digestibility.
