Strawberry Flaxseed Smoothie
Daisy Payne
The art to having strong smoothie game? Keep on changing it up.
This beauty came about upon fancying something familiar and sweet. It includes an old favourite, flaxseed which is a wonderful antioxidant seed that works wonders for our hair and skin. Plus is filled to the brim of some essential nutrients such as omega-3, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, selenium and is a good source of fibre, and helps ease inflammation in the gut.
We love collagen on many levels, but mainly for vitality and vanity. If taken regularly its said to boost energy, heal a leaky gut, make skin younger and plumper, strengthen nails and hair and... the piece de resistance? Reduce the appearance of cellulite - can we get an "Amen!" It's also said to get rid of those pesky winter dry skin patches too. Basically best ever natural beauty supplement.
D3 is a must all year round, but especially during these winter months when sunshine levels are at a low. It reduces depression and fights disease, supporting your immune system to keep you and your bones in tip top condition.
