I am very excited to be sharing my top 3 Alkaline Protein Smoothies for optimal energy. They are very quick to make (even for beginners) and will fuel your body with a myriad of nutrients. They also use some awesome herbal teas to be more effective! Alkaline Protein Smoothies will fill you up, and taste delicious. They are also compatible with alkaline cleanses (they are 100% alkaline). You can also use them on a flexible, balanced 80/20, or 70/30 alkaline lifestyle, especially if you feel you need more energy and a ton of superfoods. To learn more about the difference between the alkaline cleanse and the flexible, 80/20 alkaline lifestyle, be sure to check out one of my previous posts here. Now, it’s time to dive into our alkaline protein smoothie recipes for total balance and vibrant health!
