I watched a PBS special detailing the benefits of HOPE - which stands for high fiber, omega 3s, probiotics, and enzymes. These are key ingredients for a optimized digestive system, and overall health. I realized the smoothies I was making have all 4 ingredients, making it not only a tasty drink and treat (almost a meal at times) but also super healthy in ways I didn't realize. H and O = organic flax seeds by Barlean's, also fruit fiber, P = Lifeway's organic kefir or Nancy's lowfat organic yogurt, and E = any organic fruit. I may also add organic fruit juice, nut milks and nuts for more flavor. My alltime favorite blend is blueberries, bananas and pineapple juice. If you are apt to skip breakfast (shame on you) this would be an ideal alternative, quick and easy to make and drink!
