Two of my favorite smoothie recipes were recently featured in Women’s Health magazine.
I provided the recipes – but they were created by my daughter (Courtney Talbott) and her friend (Jaclyn Optiz) who are both nutrition majors at CalPoly in San Luis Obispo, CA.
The Women’s Health article touts them as “weight loss” shakes – but the reason that “our” smoothies have that effect is because of their benefits for balancing the microbiome (the “good” bacteria in your gut) – which can not only help you lose weight, but can significantly improve your mood.
