Start Your Day Right
Consider starting your day strong with a Green CBD Smoothie. We love this vegan one from Sharon Palmer: “Along with fiber-packed fruits and veggies, plus creamy avocado and hemp seeds for heart-healthy omega-3’s and protein, a drop of CBD completes this delicious morning blend.”
Ingredients:
1 cup packed greens (i.e., kale, chard, spinach)
1 medium banana
17 mg CBD portion of CBD oil
2 tablespoons hemp seeds
½ small avocado
¾ cup soymilk, plain, unsweetened (may substitute for another type of protein-rich plant-based milk)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
