Malted Chocolate Smoothie with Maca for Hormone Balance

Malted Chocolate Smoothie with Maca for Hormone Balance

Of late this smoothie has been my go-to to get through the afternoon slump.  It’s how I break my fast for lunch, and carries me through my post homeschool run so I can tackle a bit of work with a fully functional brain.   I love it… obviously you can take out the supplemental boosters, but they are my superfoods that hit all my energy needs and help me thrive with Hashimoto’s rather than just survive.

This smoothie is made with bone broth protein and is boosted with Gelatinized Red Maca from The Maca Team for women’s energy & libido and that malted milk ball flavor you couldn’t quite put your finger on.  I’ve tried about a dozen maca brands and this is the best, especially if you want less starch & sugar and more potent nutriton.  It also has black tahini for seed cycling (you can alternate with sprouted pumpkin seeds for the follicular phase) healthy fats and probiotics. Bone broth protein is incredibly gut healing but if you are vegan you can sub with a clean plant protein like Ancient Nutrition’s or pea protein.  Let me know what you think!

Ancient Nutrition Bone Broth Protein & A.N. plant based protein available in my Wellevate store. Gelatinized Red Maca available in The Maca Team store. (Black Maca for Men’s libido and flu resistance). Links in shop. 💛

*Of late I have been adding modified citrus pectin from EcoNugenics (PectaSol-C) as it is an extremely powerful immune modulator, detoxifier and supports cardiovascular and cellular health. It doesn’t taste like much so blends into everything. Also available in my Wellevate store.
