FERMENTED SUPERFOOD SMOOTHIE SHOT RECIPE

Are you looking for a new, healthy smoothie, with fermented ingredients … and maybe with cacao hint, that tastes really good? We have great news for you! Try something new with our latest recipe featuring Fermented Superfood Smoothie Shot.

‘Fermentation’ refers to foods that have been through a process of ‘lacto fermentation’ in which natural bacteria feed on the sugar and starch in the fermented food creating lactic acid.

This process preserves the food and creates beneficial enzymes, b-vitamins, Omega-3 fatty acids, and various strains of probiotics. Probiotics are micro-organisms that help maintain the natural balance of bacteria in the intestines.

The amount of probiotics and enzymes available in the average western diet has declined sharply over the last few decades …

This has produced an unfortunate impact on our over-all health, because probiotics have been shown to help slow or reverse some diseases, improve bowel health, aid digestion, and improve immunity!

Fermented Superfood Smoothie Shot Recipe:

Serving size: 2 smoothies (or 1 large)

Time to make: less than 5 minutes

 

Ingredients:

300ML Coconut milk

1 frozen banana

2 tbsp tahini

2 tbsp fermented superfood smoothie shot

2 tbsp organic yacon powder / or organic yacon syrup

Method:

Place all ingredients into a blender. Blitz until all ingredients are processed to a smooth and creamy texture. Pure into glasses and enjoy.

The Fermented Superfood Smoothie blend starts as a mix of nutrient-rich ingredients which undergo a natural fermentation process that acts to increase the bioavailability of these nutrients. The resulting blend contains active beneficial bacteria and enzymes that help balance our intestinal microflora.

The Cacao Powder in our Fermented Superfood Smoothie Shot adds an indulgent chocolate flavour and the Lucuma Powder provides sweetness whilst maintaining a low GI. The resulting blend makes a rich and creamy smoothie, full of goodness.
