This Turmeric Almond Bliss Fab Four Smoothie is rich in inflammatory-fighting antioxidants and microbiome-loving fiber. A topping of shredded coconut, cacao nibs, and slivered almonds give it that classic almond bliss feel.
This smoothie not only calms inflammation, but the Fab Four – protein, fat, fiber, and greens – work together to balance blood sugar by elongating the blood sugar curve. Balanced blood sugar feels like increased energy, decreased cravings, improved mood stability, and a sense of satiety after eating. You can see how this smoothie breaks down:
- Protein: Be Well by Kelly Vanilla Grassfed Beef Protein
- Fat: almond butter
- Fiber: flaxseeds, raspberries
- Greens: spinach
I love starting the day with a Fab Four smoothie because when you start the day with balanced blood sugar, it triggers the release of satiety hormones, improves glucose regulation throughout the rest of the day, and decreases the desire to snack at night.
