My 'Boost' Juice

It is very rare for me to believe in a product so much that I would recommend it to others. But I just had to let you all know about these 2 products I use EVERY single day. I have a protein and superfood smoothie each morning and evening, and if by any chance I miss out I can tell the difference in my overall energy and attitude. I have noticed that it regulates my blood sugar levels (I don't crave sweet foods or any other food between meals) and I am not as tired with only a few hours sleep. Oh, and for any breastfeeding mums, it's awesome for your milk quality and supply.

I have tried many protein and super food formulas but not one has agreed with me. I do have a sensitive digestive system so the common protein powders formulated from peas, beans, etc... have been to harsh and I would always end up with a bloated stomach and hours of discomfort. What I absolutely love about this protein powder is that it is based on sprouted brown rice (which is easily digested) it's Vegan and RAW!! I am ever so thankful for this product - thank you a million Steven and Karen.

You can purchase these awesome products from www.edenhealthfoods.com.au

You can make your smoothie however you like but this is what I do. In a blender I put:

2 Bananas,
1 Cup Milk (rice, nut, soy, etc..)
1 Cup water (even more at times)
1 heaped Tbs 'Eden PowerProtein Raw Superfood Formula'
1 heaped Tbs 'Eden Superfood Formula'
3 dates, chopped 
1 Tbs Tahini (optional)

Blend altogether and ENJOY!
