Nourish, refresh, rehydrate, and detoxify: exactly what your body needs first thing in the morning. While it’s tempting to roll out of bed, pull on your favorite jeans, grab a cup of coffee and run out the door, the extra minutes of sleep after you’ve hit the snooze button are not as beneficial as hopping out of bed in time to treat your body to a nourishing breakfast.
After sleep your body doesn’t really need a cup of coffee, it needs nutrients to jump start metabolism and it needs hydration after several hours without it. Hydrating your body first thing will help keep your digestive system running smoothly, your energy production on high, your tissues and joints supple and healthy and your complexion looking fresh and clear. In addition, supplying your body with antioxidant and fiber rich foods will help your natural detoxification system work more efficiently.
This smoothie has everything you need and is easy to whip up in the morning, even if you only have a few minutes before a meeting or your am. yoga class. Adding Purity powdered coconut water provides a hydration and electrolyte boost, while beets, kale, berries and parsley provide fiber and nutrients for detoxification and raw almonds provide a gluten-free source of vegan protein.
Enjoy!
