Do the Mango

I love mango!  There are a lot of benefits to mangos that only a few people know.  Mangos are amazing at prevention – prevention of cancers, heart disease, strokes, cognitive disorders, and MORE.  Yes, more.  Mangos can also help with insomnia and hormone balancing.  They are dense fruit that keeps you satisfied and, of course, taste yummy.  You can use frozen or fresh in this smoothie.  Just be sure it’s not overripe.

Get In More Leafy Greens

This smoothie calls for spinach, but feel free to use any leafy green.  Leafy greens are essential for providing electrolytes and plant-based protein and can be considered the chimney sweep for your colon.  You need leafy greens, and you want leafy greens.  Best consumed raw, it’s easy to get a high amount when putting them into a smoothie.  Make it easy!

Barley grass, what?

In just one tiny scoop of Barley Grass Juice Powder, you can help your body remove toxic heavy metals from your body.  Toxic heavy metals are everywhere – fast foods, processed foods, processed oils, fragrances, pesticides, and more.  We all get exposed, and they can lead to diseases and symptoms.  

Having a scoop a day of high-quality Barly Grass Juice Powder (affiliate link) will help your body eliminate these baddies.  The phytonutrients in barley grass juice powder give vital nutrition to your liver, giving your liver the power to fight off pathogens causing conditions and symptoms in our bodies.

Smoothies Saved My Life – but the Ingredients Matter.

Back in 2020, following a high-stress divorce and family death, I was crippled with chronic illness.  Being in my 40s, I already had a few symptoms here or there, but they suddenly quadrupled and got serious.  Severe chronic anemia, chronic fatigue, hormone imbalances, and adrenal burnout brought me literally to my knees and robbed me of any sort of everyday life.

I first went where the fads were – high fat, high protein diet.  I piled scoops of peanut or almond butter into my smoothies, popped open dozens of dried cow liver and spleen pills, and, let’s not forget the nut milk.  I didn’t know any better; many swore by this.

When I ended up feeling worse, I looked for more answers.  Fortunately, my doctors approved the autoimmune protocol diet, and I found that Medical Medium Info fit into that category.  I learned quickly that high-fat, high-protein diets only burden our body’s most significant defense: our liver.  

I transitioned to plant-based, overt fat and nut-free, fruit and veggie-packed smoothies and avoided fat and animal protein until lunch or dinner.

I kid you not when I say that saved my life.  

Within five months, my bloodwork showed a completely different story: high cholesterol down to normal, high testosterone down to normal, blood count levels all normal, energy had skyrocketed, and that was indeed just the tip of the iceberg.  My life was back.  

You won’t find protein powders, nut butter, or milk in my smoothie recipes.  

Try consistently giving your liver a break in the morning, feed your adrenals and brain with fruit glucose (that won’t make you fat), and see how you feel!

About that glucose

Did you know that the glucose in fruit gets into your bloodstream and works for (not against) your body before it hits your stomach?  Neither did I.  I had developed a fear of fruit, thinking it would make me fat.  Fruit is a miracle given to us by nature and contains more nutrients than we can count.  Don’t let the Fruit Fear many of us have to keep you from getting the magic fruit offers.
