I am calling back the Summer with this tropical all in one breakfast smoothie: "Aloha Smoothie". Made with fresh or frozen fruit, it will not disappoint! It provides you with healthy fats (Omega 3/6) from the coconut, hemp seeds and Brazil nuts. It includes antioxidants like resveratrol from the grapes and selenium from Brazil nuts. It has fibre and protein from the hemp seeds, nuts and fruit. Contains Vitamin C and potassium. All together, a great satisfying brain and adrenal booster to help start the day.
