What You Will NOT Find in
Our Fertility Smoothie recipes...
Processed Sugars, Syrups, Artificial Flavors
No need for these. The fruit in our smoothie recipes provide more than enough sweetness. The
reason you want to avoid processed sugars in your smoothies and entire diet is because they
lack the fiber that would allow them to enter the blood stream slowly. Instead, when you eat
processed sugars they cause your blood sugar levels to spike, causing issues with hormones,
health and inflammation.
Homogenized Milk
You won’t find homogenized milk or any dairy milk in our fertility smoothie recipes. Homogenizing
and pasteurizing milk changes the milk’s molecular structure. In addition, hormones and antibiotics
given to the cows can pass on to you. If you do want to consume milk it is best in its raw
form, or at least organic, in small amounts. In our recipes we trade out cow’s milk with nut milks,
fresh juices or water.
Soy Milk
Processed soy products should be avoided due to their estrogen mimicking properties. If you
need a replacement check out one of our nut milk recipes and include those in your smoothies.
Soy Protein
While protein powder is a great ingredient to add to your smoothies, we do not promote or
suggest that soy protein be used for the same reasons as soy milk. Some great alternatives are
whey protein (from clean cows that don’t have antibiotics or hormones), hemp protein or rice
protein.
