Hangover Remedy Smoothie

Now that I’m in my 40s I rarely have the need for a hangover remedy or cure. Those days are long behind me but I’m sure a few people will have the need for this hangover remedy smoothie. The real question is can you stand the noise of the blender? ;-)

You’ll notice there are some odd ingredients in this smoothie recipe such as chamomile flowers, slippery elm power and gingerroot. They are there to help with stomach issues and help relax the mind, all good things for treating a hangover, yes? Which also makes this a great smoothie for stomach pains, cramps, sickness and stress.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup apple juice
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 2 apples
• 1 banana
• 1/2 inch piece of gingerroot, peeled
• 1/2 tsp dried Chamomile Flowers
• 1/2 tsp Slippery Elm Powder (See all Vitamins & Supplements)

In a blender, combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth.

And if you are wondering what the heck slippery elm is: Slippery elm is used to relieve gastrointestinal conditions, sore throats, ulcers, and respiratory irritations today. External uses include treatment of skin conditions, vaginitis, and hemorrhoids. It can be used as a cough medicine or as a skin smoother and softener.

POM Breakfast Smoothie

This POM smoothie is full of super healthy antioxidants from the pomegranate juice and and the almonds. The banana provides a great source of potassium. This is being labeled as a breakfast smoothie, but it ain’t bad for a lunch smoothie either. Why is pomegranate juice (POM) so wonderful: Its has wonderful healthy benefits such as Antioxidants. There have been many Scientific Studies showing that POM can support a healthy cardiovascular system and helps with problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes Type II among others.

And just how rich in antioxidants is POM pomegranate juice? Take a look at the image below rating high antioxidant juices. POM scores the highest.

Oh yeah, what about the POM Smoothie recipe? Here it is:

Mango Strawberry Banana Smoothie

I found this wonderful smoothie image on Flickr.com and then found the smoothie recipe on Sandra’s Recipes at http://sandrarecipeblogsite.blogspot.com. Not only is this mango, strawberry, banana smoothie a treat for the tongue, it is a visual delight for the eyes. Sandra has done a masterful job creating this smoothie. Please visit her site to find more recipes (and every recipe has a photo). This smoothie needs to be built in two colorful layers. It takes a little extra time, but you and anyone you share this smoothie with will be delighted at the results.

An added feature for this smoothie is the fact that is a non-dairy smoothie.

I would love to post additional photos of this smoothie, so if you give it a try, send in the photos to blenderman@smoothieweb.com and I’ll add them and give you credit.

Perfect Purple Detox Smoothie

I haven’t tried this detox smoothie with the exact ingredients yet. The smoothie detoxing ingredients are extensive and may be hard to find, so feel free to substitute where you need to.  The original recipe writer write, “the cayenne powder gives it a spicy punch that intensifies the rest of the flavors, such as sweet-tart raspberries, antioxidant-rich wild blueberries, tangy apple cider vinegar, smooth almond milk, sweet acai juice, nutty flax seed meal and the coconut water ice cubes.”

With a healthy description like that you know its got to be worth trying. Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods stores will have the ingredients, but I put links to some of them on Amazon if you need to buy from there.

Ingredients:

• 12 ounces Acai Juice
• 6 ounces almond or soy milk (I prefer almond milk)
• 1 Tbsp soy creamer
• 1 cup frozen wild blueberries
• 1 banana (frozen)
• 1/2 cup frozen raspberries
• 1 Tbsp Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal (blueberry if you can find it, try Trader Joe’s)
• 1 cup ice cubes (coconut water ice cubes pref’d)
• 1 Tbsp Macro Greens powder
• 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 1-3 dashes cayenne powder

Serves 2 healthy people in need of detox.
