We have chosen each of these ingredients as they all contain the necessary vitamins and minerals as well as bioactive anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative polyphenols and other phytochemicals which exert beneficial health effects.
· Chia seeds help to lower inflammation;
· Cinnamon has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity and regulate blood sugar levels;
· Cocoa polyphenols and flavanols support cognitive function, gut health, immune function, and reduce cholesterol/lipid levels in the blood;
· Maca Root is also a great source of fibre to nourish gut health, and contains vitamin C, iron, potassium and calcium;
· Cardamom helps to balance the taste but is also a source of potent polyphenols (as are all herbs and spices) with antioxidant capacity;
· Monk fruit powder is a natural sweetener which can taste up to 200x sweeter than sugar so we only need a very tiny amount to sweeten the product. The sweetness actually comes from the naturally occurring mogrosides it contains which some studies have shown to have anti-oxidative effects. Unlike every other sweetener on the market, pure monk fruit powder is not an extract and does not contain any carbs, sugar or calories which means it has zero effect on glucose and insulin levels. And most importantly, it does not have any effect on gut bacteria.

All of these health benefits help to reduce risk of chronic diseases including diabetes, and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases both directly and indirectly by increasing gut health and resilience.

Simply add 3-5 heaped tablespoons (30-50g) to 1-2 cups (250-500ml) of your favourite milk* (plant-based is best) or water and blend.

To enhance your shake, try out some of these delicious ideas:

Blend in a handful of fresh or frozen berries (any berry will do but raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries are best).

Spice it up with a teaspoon of turmeric or pinch of cayenne pepper.

For more texture, fibre, protein and healthy fats add some extra seeds – any mix of sunflower, pumpkin, hemp, flaxseed, and chia seeds.

Sprinkle it over your favourite muesli or yoghurt and add nuts and berries.

For a hot cocoa version, simply mix the powder and milk in a pot and heat very gently until hot but not boiling. Blend the hot mixture until smooth and enjoy.

Roll up with minced dates, muesli and coconut flakes to make protein balls.

Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. See packet for expiry date. For best results consume within 30 days of opening.
