| Nutritional Smoothie Options |
| Under the guidance of a health care professional (nutritionist, herbalist, naturopath, or medical doctor), these blender drinks can be customized for specific conditions by using various additives. The options listed here are a few of the many ways to custom-blend nutritional smoothies. Generally, options are intended to be additions to the basic shake with the following exceptions: whey protein replaces soy protein, Greens Plus replaces chlorella, and Eskimo Oil replaces flaxseed oil. When quantities are given as a range (1 teaspoon to 2 tablespoons), start with the lower amount and increase gradually. |
