Protein Packed + Nutrient Boost

This smoothie boasts a solid 47g, thanks to a combination of natural pea protein, soy milk and seeds. Hemp, chia and pumpkin seeds are added as they have great protein content as well as a mix of healthy fats, nutrients and minerals. They work together to build your body back up after vigorous movement by repairing tissue, building cells and transporting oxygen. These processes are essential when you’re training regularly as your muscles are constantly being torn down and require that extra oxygen and restoration. Chia and hemp also provide omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants that help to nourish your skin from the inside out by increasing collagen production. Not a bad result after for only 5 minutes with your blender!
