London Fog Smoothie

This London Fog smoothie is a dream for those seeking calm, peace, and restoration with nutrition. It’s a blend of pitted dates, vanilla extract, hemp hearts, Earl Grey tea, and vanilla Lifeway kefir, rich in probiotics and immune supporting nutrients, including protein, calcium, vitamin D, and more.

Dates are high in dietary fiber to support digestive health and offer a wealth of potassium, magnesium, and other vital minerals that contribute to healthy blood pressure function, digestion, natural sweetness, and more. Earl Grey tea is a combination of black tea and bergamot orange extract; there’s nothing like this form of tea! It has beneficial plant compounds known as polyphenols, which act as antioxidants that protect cells from reactive molecules called free radicals. Our vanilla kefir is high in protein per serving and 12 live and active probiotic cultures that may support a healthy gut microbiome and immunity.

Cultured Dairy: The Nutrition Benefits You Need to Know

With increasing research linking the correlation between probiotics, gut health, and immunity, it’s no secret that the integrity of our gut is vital to our health. Although additional factors such as stress, antibiotic usage, and individual health conditions can contribute to the condition of our gut, a focus on healthy food choices is one of the easiest ways to support the microbiome.

Several studies have shown a strong association between the gut-brain-microbiota. Probiotics introduced to the gut have been found to support immunity, improve allergies, and improve digestion.

Studies have shown that reduced diversity of healthy gut bacteria during early years is associated with an increase in food allergies during school-age years. In addition, kefir made from whole milk helps absorb key nutrients such as Vitamins A, D, E, and K. Vitamin K is important because it helps your bones absorb calcium. It’s important to know that kefir contains a special trio: vitamin D, K, and calcium – all three crucial elements to support bone health.
