Usually, when it comes to smoothies, you either get protein smoothies or energy boosting smoothies – not both.
Why? Because the typical protein powder added to smoothies, whey protein, will actually sap your energy as your body works to fight acid, rather than adding to it!
That’s why alkaline protein powders are so effective – they give you more energy, NATURALLY! (Read my upcoming blog post on Thursday for more about this.)
So if you want energy to power through your day, plus protein to power through your workout, not to mention great taste, this quick and easy smoothie recipe is perfect for you.
Give it a try and let me know what you think over on Facebook.
