Let’s imagine you have been working on your diet and doing well. You are working toward a healthy diet and clean eating… even goals like 5k runs and exercise groups or (gasp) even a half marathon. The problem is, you have been told by your …
Eating nose to tail might not be your definition of fun, but with some amazing hacks and tricks, it can be so delicious that even the hubs and suspicious children will gobble it up. Incorporating organ meats (offal) into recipes is incredibly nourishing, hormone balancing …
This smoothie is packed with adaptogens, medicinal mushrooms and healthy fats and is quick and satisfying.
Ancient Nutrition Vanilla Bone Broth Protein is available in my Fullscript Dispensary* If you prefer a vegan option, there is a plant based version from Ancient Nutrition there as well. Rasa Cacao is adaptogenic magic with the added bonus of having hair follicle stimulating He Shou Wu and it is available here. I am close to obsessed with Rasa. I drink their Calm brew in the evening and a scoop of their Bold in my Swiss water organic decaf coffee in the morning because it gives sustainable energy and supports my adrenals. Adrenal support is Rasa’s M.O. and they do it quite well. I recommend brewing it in either a french press for 15 minutes or in a stovetop espresso maker.
I love smoothies for breaking my fast because they are quick, yummy and meet my nutritional needs. As a bonus, I’m not too full to get in a run or kettlebell workout for de-stressing after a long morning. If you try this I would love to know what you think! If you would like me to send you a Wellevate recommendation with my favorite smoothie ingredients send me a message here.
Enjoy!

*I sometimes add modified citrus pectin from EcoNugenics (PectaSol-C) as it is an extremely powerful immune modulator, detoxifier and supports cardiovascular and cellular health. It doesn’t taste like much so blends into everything. Also available in my Fullscript Dispensary.
This smoothie is full of medicinal mushrooms, gut healing bone broth protein, probiotics and antioxidants from the root that makes it red: beetroot. I always detested beets or beetroot until I visited Australia where frankly, people know how to prepare it properly. I prefer to …

Gretna Greens Smoothie 💚🥬
There’s nothing quite like a clean green smoothie to start the day or break your fast in the afternoon. I had something like this for my breakfast for a couple years (I like routine!) and had to stop and adapt when my body became unable to handle fresh greens like kale, spinach & celery… even lettuce came up as an allergy! That was a bummer. But I found shortly after that I could consume powdered greens just fine, especially Spirulina and Chlorella. This is an antioxidant powerhouse and with bone broth protein, healthy fats, probiotics from coconut kefir and Spirulina and is a must for good skin and immune support.
For this I used a combination of spirulina & chlorella greens. I use Ancient Nutrition Vanilla Bone Broth Protein, which is available in my Fullscript Practitioner Dispensary.* It is full of and is quick to make! I like to use dōTERRA Lemon Essential Oil drops from the culinary collection or a squeeze of half an organic lemon.
Let me know what you think!

This is a treat of a smoothie with hints of Mexican Chocolate. I prefer Ancient Nutrition Bone Broth Protein & Designs for Sport Bone Broth Protein, both of which are available in my Fullscript Dispensary.* If you want it extra chocolate, add a tbsp of …
I don’t have an Aunt Edna, but my husband does. I was playing a little naming game for smoothies on my @brennamaywellness instagram account a while back and we came up with some creative names… not all of which I have brought to the blog. …
I am a sucker for chocolate & raspberry and since I have moved to slightly more paleo than keto a treat like this to break my fast is just that… a treat. It is chockers with antioxidants, healthy fats, brain boosting medicinal mushrooms and omega 3’s, gut healing protein, fiber and probiotics from the coconut kefir.
I used OM Master Mushroom Blend + Ancient Nutrition Chocolate Bone Broth Protein from my Fullscript Dispensary.* I like Ancient Nutrition’s Vanilla Bone Broth Protein if i’m going for a subtle flavor.
Whether you need a nutritious kickstart to your day or something to break your fast and give you energy through the afternoon slump, this is a great choice.
Let me know what you think!
Enjoy!
