Rehydrate Like A Rockstar
Hydration is the key to health! With a coconut water base, our green smoothie is a perfect choice for rehydrating after a strenuous workout. Why?
- Coconut water is a powerful source of natural electrolytes. It also contains 13 times more potassium than Gatorade, and twice as much natural sodium.
- Potassium, as you may know, is an electrolyte and it’s essential for proper cell function.
- Another great source or potassium? The humble banana. Bananas are a heavyweight when it comes to nutrition. They’re loaded with essential vitamins and minerals such as potassium, calcium, manganese, magnesium, iron, folate, niacin, riboflavin, and B6. They’re also a great source of fiber.
An Ode To Avocado
Avocados are (still) having a moment right now, appearing on overpriced toast and resting atop trendy Açaí bowls.
This unique fruit has been prized for centuries for its delicious taste and it’s unbeatable nutrition. They’re loaded with healthy fatty acids, fiber, antioxidants and complex carbohydrates. They actually contain more potassium than a banana (although bananas get all the credit). Their creamy texture makes them a perfect addition to smoothies, vegan ice creams and puddings. It’s the star of the show, holding our whole smoothie together!*
