Today we have asked Anna Botterweg from @anna.nutricion to help us with a very easy recipe to keep our skin healthy and glowing.
For the smoothie we need:
[ingredients]
1 boiled carrot (or steamed) 4 min - makes vitamin A better absorbed, which is very beneficial for mucous membranes, skin, hair and nails.
150g of pineapple - contains enzymes that help digestion and eliminate toxins from the intestine.
10g fresh ginger - start small and increase if taste is tolerated, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Helps kill bad skin bacteria.
10g of fresh turmeric (or 1/2 tablespoon if powdered) - super anti-inflammatory.
1 tbs of hemp seeds - carries the 9 essential amino acids and many healthy fats that make the rest of the ingredients absorbable since most of them are fat-soluble.
1 tbs of collagen peptides (or the portion that marks the container). Skin is mostly made up of collagen and we often don't get enough of it from our diet - it helps maintain skin firmness as well as elasticity.
*If the taste is tolerated, add a little bit of black pepper - it makes us absorb 200% more curcumin, which is the anti-inflammatory compound in turmeric.
[method]
Put all the ingredients together in a shaker glass with 150ml of filtered water.
