Green power breakfast smoothie
In the summer I love nothing more than a lovely fresh green smoothie for breakfast. If it’s a spin class morning, I like to enjoy it after but if I am strength training, I need a boost of power before I hit the weights. This is my recent most favourite to give me that boost on a summer’s morning! One of my favourite Plant based protein powder is by ThatProtein and contains Baobab, recognised for its immune boosting properties, high iron and vitamin C nutritional profile!

the health boost tip
Do make sure to chose your protein powder wisely to address your nutritional needs. Seek professional help from a qualified practitioner before adding superfood powders or supplements.
