Let us introduce you to one of our favourite products – Gut Health Powder, also known as Diatomaceous Earth!
What is Diatomaceous Earth?
A clean digestive system is the starting point for
overall body and mind health and this product can help you to optimise the overall health and function of your gut. This amazing discovery is 100% fossil shell flour (technically called Diatomaceous Earth), a plant-based, a food-grade ingredient that is effective at thoroughly cleansing your digestive system by gently removing toxins, impurities, build up and even parasites.
Heal your gut daily with our tasty heal your gut smoothie recipe:
Servings: 1
Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 ripe pear
- 1 cup spinach
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 cups filtered water
- 1 tsp Diatomaceous Earth
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in your blender.
- Blend until smooth.
- Decorate or add in some “chewable” foods.
Notes
We always recommend adding some chunky bits to a smoothie after blending, as chewing prepares your gut. In doing that it actually releases gastric secretions and enzymes into the gut and stomach, which helps to break down food that’s coming in.
