I talk alot about clean eating. It’s pretty much at the core of everything I do. And this month in particular, I’m focusing on breast cancer prevention through nutrition and lifestyle. I don’t know of an easier way to introduce you to clean eating while at the same time have you benefit from pure, nutrient-dense foods than smoothies.

smoothie2At the most basic level, we all need and crave energy. Sometimes it is so easy to want to grab a quick bowl of cereal or even forget breakfast and just get through the morning on 1-2 cups of coffee for the energy needed to survive the day.

I don’t want you to just survive through the day though; I want you to THRIVE through the day. I also don’t want you to go on the “crash and crave” roller coaster for the entire day. If you begin your morning with caffeinated coffee and sugar, you will crash, and you will be either too tired to make it through your responsibilities or you will be reaching for another cup of coffee to get through a few more hours.

Smoothies are another quick alternative to a fast breakfast that can help energize us throughout the entire day. When you toss in some greens, a little fruit, and a healthy liquid like coconut water or non-dairy milk, you are bound to feel energetic and ready to take on the day.

Starting the day with a smoothie also gives you well-needed antioxidants which help protect our bodies from free radicals, and it is a great low glycemic start. Eating a low glycemic breakfast will help curb your sugar cravings for the entire day and it will also help with not crashing.

Next time you want a quick breakfast or meal, try a delicious smoothie that will leave you feeling energized and motivated. A morning smoothie will provide your body with the nutrients it needs to produce natural energy and naturally boost your metabolism. So, what are you reaching for tomorrow morning?

If you would like to give smoothies a try, join me for my Free 7 Day Smoothie Challenge which kicks off Oct. 16. For one week, you will have one smoothie for breakfast (or more during the day if you like and eat normally the rest of the day), and I will be talking about everything clean eating as well as sharing my coaching tips in a closed facebook group.

I will also be giving away two free 28 Day Programs and one 90 Day Program at the end of the 7 Day Smoothie Challenge!
