The more I\u2019ve learned about superfoods, the more I found it absolutely essential to include them as ingredients in each and every one of Evive\u2019s smoothies. <\/strong><\/p>– Claudia Poulin, Evive Co-Founder<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Without further ado, here are the star superfoods and their main benefits found in our favourite summer smoothies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hemp seeds are an incredibly healthy superfood that provides our bodies with so many benefits! They are rich in healthy fats and essential fatty acids<\/a> and are a complete source of protein which means they\u2019re a good source of energy and helps us feel full for an extended amount of time. They also can reduce the risk of heart disease and help relieve dry skin! It was a no-brainer to include hemp seeds in the Viva smoothie<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ever wondered which ingredient gives our Saphir smoothie<\/a><\/strong> its gorgeous blue hue? It\u2019s blue spirulina! Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae that grows in both salt and freshwater. It may be one of the most nutrient-dense foods on earth<\/a>, so it\u2019s incredibly healthy! It has powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and can even improve our bodies\u2019 muscle strength and endurance! I\u2019m so grateful that our refreshing Saphir<\/a><\/strong> is a best-seller and that so many people can benefit from this wonderful superfood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chia seeds have become a popular superfood and it\u2019s no surprise! Did you know that almost all the carbs in them are fibre<\/a>? That\u2019s amazing! It\u2019s also been noted that the high fibre and protein content in chia seeds may help you lose weight<\/a>. On top of that, they contain nutrients that are essential for our bone health. All in all, it was a must for me to include chia seeds in the Samoura\u00ef<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our tropical Touk-Touk smoothie<\/a><\/strong> contains this ancient Indian superfood that is an important spice and medicinal herb. Turmeric contains curcumin, a substance with powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties<\/a>. This means that it stimulates our bodies\u2019 own antioxidant enzymes and neutralizes free radicals. It\u2019s also so appropriate that this sunshine smoothie\u2019s superfood can boost our brains\u2019 neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine<\/a> which has incredible benefits against depression! <\/p>\n\n\n\n If it\u2019s the first time you\u2019re discovering Evive\u2019s smoothies, make sure to check out our current summer trial box that includes all 4 smoothies above! Wishing you a healthy and fresh summer full of superfoods! \ud83d\ude09 \ud83e\udd6d<\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019ve probably heard the expression; \u201cYour body is a temple.\u201d It\u2019s simple but it\u2019s so true.
