Vitality Life Force Smoothie

This delicious smoothie is one of those nourishing blends that’s simple to make, yet deeply supportive from the inside out.

It supplies you with plant-based protein, fiber, healthy fats, minerals, antioxidants, and essential vitamins, everything your body needs to feel energized, grounded, and radiant!

Before we get to the full recipe below, I want to share a little more about why I chose these particular ingredients and the powerful benefits they bring.

The Power of Chia Seed Gel

Chia seeds are tiny, but they are mighty when it comes to your health!

When soaked in water, they form a gel-like consistency that’s incredible for digestion and hydration. This gel helps support a smooth, well-functioning digestive system by creating bulk and movement in the gut. It’s also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for brain and heart health and help to reduce inflammation and support emotional balance.

What I love most is how grounding and energizing chia seed gel feels. It gives the body clean, sustainable fuel without spiking blood sugar levels, making it a beautiful ingredient for stable energy throughout the day!

One of my favorite ways to use chia gel is in this smoothie, but if you’re looking for another beautiful, heart-loving option, try the Banana Chia Seed Parfait!

Hemp Milk vs. Coconut Milk: Which One to Choose?

This recipe works beautifully with both hemp milk and coconut milk, or even something as simple as unsweetened almond milk (whatever you have on hand in your kitchen).

Hemp milk is a fantastic source of plant-based protein and omega-3s, and it has a slightly nutty flavor that blends well with both sweet and savory dishes. It’s also easier to digest for many people and doesn’t contain added sugars or gums when you make it fresh!

Coconut milk, on the other hand, is incredibly creamy and comforting. It contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are a wonderful source of quick energy and can help support mental clarity and metabolism. It’s more grounding and rich, which can feel especially nourishing if you’re feeling depleted or emotionally tender.

And if you’re looking for another cozy, heart-warming way to enjoy these plant-based milks, try my Fall Golden Milk Latte recipe. It’s a soothing, anti-inflammatory favorite that’s perfect for cooler days and calm evenings!

Both are beautiful options! You can choose based on your mood, what your body is asking for, or simply what’s already in your fridge. Unsweetened almond milk works great too! Either way, each one offers a nourishing foundation for this recipe.

Glowing Greens Powder

One of the key superfood blends in this recipe is our very own Glowing Greens Powder.

This is where the magic really happens!

This blend is full of nature’s most powerful green allies, including:

Amla (Amalaki): A potent source of vitamin C and antioxidants, amla supports radiant skin, immune strength, and a calm nervous system.

Ashitaba: Known as the “longevity herb,” ashitaba supports cellular regeneration and promotes graceful aging from the inside out.

Moringa: A complete plant protein and rich in essential nutrients like iron, calcium, and magnesium, moringa helps balance energy and hormones.

Chlorella & Spirulina: These two microalgae are powerhouse detoxifiers, helping to gently cleanse heavy metals and support vibrant cellular energy.

Adding Glowing Greens Powder to your recipes is an easy way to infuse your day with high-frequency nutrients, without needing a full fridge of greens. It’s my go-to when I want a quick, deeply nourishing boost that I can feel on a cellular level.

Whether you enjoy it in the morning to set the tone for your day or as an afternoon reset, it’s a beautiful way to nourish your heart, your gut, and your glow!
