How to make a recovery smoothie



Blackcurrant powder is a good source of vitamin C and antioxidants, which can help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the body. These benefits can aid in post-workout recovery by helping to reduce muscle soreness, inflammation, and oxidative damage caused by exercise.


In addition, blackcurrant powder contains anthocyanins, which are pigments that give fruits and vegetables their dark color. Anthocyanins have been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which can help reduce exercise-induced muscle damage and promote faster recovery.


Sujon blackcurrant superfood powder is rich in polyphenols, which have been shown to improve blood flow and enhance muscle oxygenation during exercise. This increased blood flow can help transport nutrients and oxygen to muscles, promoting faster recovery and reducing muscle fatigue.


Overall, adding Sujon blackcurrant superfood powder to a recovery smoothie or supplement can be a beneficial way to support post-workout recovery and reduce exercise-induced muscle damage.


Here's a recipe for a Sujon blackcurrant superfood powder recovery smoothie:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup frozen Sujon Mixed Berries

  • 1 banana, sliced (frozen banana works great too)

  • 1 scoop protein powder of your choice

  • 1 heaped teaspoon Sujon blackcurrant superfood powder

  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of your choice)

  • 1/2 cup plain yoghurt (Greek or dairy free)

  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Add all the ingredients into a blender.

  2. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.

  3. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey.

  4. If the smoothie is too thick, add some ice to thin it out and blend again.

  5. Pour into a glass and enjoy your blackcurrant powder recovery smoothie!
