Back when I was dealing with my concussion, I used to take turmeric supplements each day to help with the healing process but now, I try to incorporate it when I can in other ways.
Don’t be weirded out by the black pepper in the smoothie either–your body can’t process the turmeric without it–and you can’t even taste it.
I also added hemp hearts for the first time after reading a ton about their amazing properties as well. They’re full of omegas, protein, and add a delicious nutty flavor to whatever they’re added to. Hooray for new smoothie recipes!
