Adrenal EmergenC Smoothie Recipe

Last week I spilled the beans on my current adrenal situation. With my body ready to regenerate and get back on track, I have been looking for foods and recipes to help heal my body from the inside out. There are a lot of do’s and don’ts on the food list but i was able to create a delicious Adrenal EmergenC Smoothie Recipe with all the right things to help my body get back on track. This recipe has some fantastic anti-inflammatory properties, it’s full of vitamin C which helps build healthy immune systems, while allowing us to absorb those all important nutrients our body has been missing out on! This recipe is also packed with protein and includes just the right amount of salt to help replace those depleted minerals. It also contains a good amount of healthy fats and just a hint of sweetness!
