Liver lover smoothie

Raspberry_smoothie.png

A source of fat (coconut coconut oil) and piperine from cayenne pepper help with the absorption of the key active ingredient in turmeric called curcumin, which supports the first phase of detoxification by the liver. Collagen contains amino acid glycine which is key for the second phase of detoxification. Coconut oil and beetroot will help with bile flow.

Ingredients:

  • Handful of fresh or frozen raspberries

  • 1/2 cooked beetroot, e.g. vacuum packed (raw is very high in oxalates)

  • 1 table spoon of coconut oil

  • 1 serving of collagen

  • 1 egg yolk (read here why I recommend raw egg yolks)

  • Small piece of fresh turmeric or 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder

  • Pinch of cayenne pepper

  • Water, to achieve a desired consistency

  • Optional: 3 drops of rose water

Instructions:

Blend and enjoy.
