Energy Boosting Smoothies | Best Superfoods For Energy

The energy boosting smoothies are great to make for breakfast. Quick and easy to power you throughout the day.

What are the best energy boosting ingredients for a smoothie? The best are: fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, protein and superfood powders.

Here are the Top 3 Energy Boosting Smoothies:  

1. Chocolate Energy Smoothie

• 1 banana
• A handful of frozen blueberries
• Flaxseeds ½ tsp and chia seeds ½ tsp
• Peruvian cacao powder 1 tsp  and Guarana 1 tsp or Energy & Vitality Superfood Mix 2 tsp

• 1 cup of filtered water or plant based milk

Raw Peruvian Cacao is extremely rich in flavanols which have been shown to act as powerful mood enhancers by increasing levels of endorphins and serotonin in the brain. Mineral-rich cacao energizes the body without overstimulating the nervous system, giving you long-lasting energy!

Guarana is a true superstar when it comes to boosting energy levels: it contains natural caffeine and countless micronutrients for long-lasting energy without crashes. 

2. Berry Made in Heaven

• 1 banana
• A handful of frozen blueberries
• A handful of frozen strawberries
• 1 tsp of almond butter
• 1 tbsp of hemp seeds
• 1 tsp of Beauty Glow Mix for antioxidants (optional)
• 1 cup of plant based milk or water

Berries help regulate your digestion by providing a healthy dose of fiber.

Hemp seeds provide a great balance of protein, vitamins and minerals. High in iron, zinc and a good source of calcium, hemp seeds give you an energy boost any time of the day, also great in a post-workout smoothie!

If you’re not a big breakfast person, this smoothie is a great go-to for the energy you need to get the day started. 

3. Green Energy Machine

• 1 banana
• A handful of frozen mango or pineapple
• A handful of spinach or kale
• 2 tsp of Super Greens Blend ( the combination of powerful greens: chlorella, spirulina, wheatgrass…)
• 1 cup of filtered water

Greens are natural energy boosting foods that are high in vitamins and minerals, which play a key role in energy production. You’ll also benefit from antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that improve your immune system and help your body fight infections.

You can find all energising and nutrient-dense superfoods in our Energy Superfood Blend. We use only certified Organic and non-GMO ingredients. It is sustainably sourced and batch tested for quality and purity here in the UK.

The main ingredient in our superblend is Guarana. Native to the exotic Brazilian rainforest, the indigenous peoples consider Guarana the “Elixir of Youth” and deem it as valuable as gold due to its myriad of health benefiting effects.

A study conducted at the University of Tasmania found that Guarana produced the greatest alertness and improvement in the performance of mental tasks. 

Whilst coffee produced a peak in alertness after 30 – 45 minutes, this rapidly fell away in comparison to the effects of Guarana which were still continuing, and increasing, after 150 minutes. This may be due to its naturally occurring caffeine being released slowly, thus maintaining a steady supply of natural energy.

If you’re looking for a safer and cleaner way to enjoy Guarana, we suggest trying our Energy & Vitality Blend.
