The Best Blueberry Protein Shake - Anti-inflammatory

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe·5 from 1 review

This creamy, delicious Blueberry Protein Shake is a morning anti-inflammatory smoothie with lots of nutritional punch. Blueberries, collagen protein, almond milk, frozen bananas, peanut powder, ground golden flaxseed, and more are combined to sustain you throughout the morning with 35 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber.

I make this power shake for my husband every morning before he leaves for work at 6:45. He loves the natural sweetness of the blueberries with the peanut flavor. The frozen banana adds icy creaminess, and it is delicious. It’s so easy to skip breakfast and run on empty all morning. Having a high-protein smoothie can fuel and sustain you for hours. Also, healthy fiber contributes to your overall gut health. This can also be a perfect post-workout drink or easy on-the-go lunch.

As a holistic nutritionist, I am always reading the latest digestive health news, and I was fortunate to take an advanced digestive health course with Dr. Elizabeth Lipski. If you, like me, are intolerant to gluten or have celiac then you may have suffered from digestive issues. Smoothies like this one are full of healthy digestive-supportive ingredients and anti-oxidant-packed berries.

We are especially fond of Colostrum. My husband and I add it to our shakes every day. I have noticed an improvement in my overall digestive health since starting colostrum and have been using it for about a year.
