Who doesn't want youthful, radiant skin? That's what we thought! This smoothie bowl's beautifying properties come from more than just antioxidant-rich berries—flavorless, hydrolyzed collagen powder is high in amino acids that promote skin elasticity and repair. As we age, our bodies slowly decrease collagen production; consuming a collagen peptide supplement can reverse this process. Avocado—the secret ingredient responsible for the creamy texture of this bowl keeps skin dewy and soft, thanks to loads of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. Avocado’s high lutein content may protect skin from harmful UV radiation and inflammatory stress. Lemon provides abundant vitamin C and neutralizes free radicals that can damage skin cells.
Topping suggestions:
- Fresh or frozen peach slices
- Fresh blueberries
- Raw almond slices
- Blend ingredients, pour into a bowl and decorate with desired toppings.
