What’s Your Super-Powder? Superfood Ingredients to Level Up Your Smoothies

Step aside, protein powder. There are new heroes in town! We’ve gathered some of nature’s most potent superfoods that blend seamlessly into your daily smoothies. Check out these amazing superfood powders to up-level your smoothie recipes.

Maca Powder
Maca, also known as Peruvian ginseng, is a wellness tonic with tons of benefits. While it’s famous for improving stamina and fertility, it’s also incredibly rich in compounds that boost the mood and energize the body.

Use it in: Creamy smoothies with banana, plant-based milks, or peanut butter

Hibiscus Powder
Hibiscus powder comes from the intensely tangy hibiscus flower and is an underrated superfood. We love it for its ability to clear toxins, enhance the skin’s glow, aid in weight loss, and improve heart health.

Use it in: Sweet fruit-forward smoothies, especially berries.

Turmeric Powder
Turmeric is a vibrant yellow root that is most famous for its use in rich Indian curries and dishes. But, turmeric has become popular in other cuisines as well for it’s benefits to the immune and cardiovascular systems. 

Use it in: Any kind of smoothie. Bonus! Blend with ginger for added immune-boosting benefits, or a touch of black pepper to fight inflammation. 

Collagen Powder
Collagen is a protein that gives your joints strength and flexibility and your skin a youthful bounce. As we age, however, collagen naturally declines. Push pause on the aging process by adding a hearty dose of collagen powder to your daily blend.

Use it in: Any kind of smoothie or juice.

Spirulina Powder
Spirulina is a blue-green alga and one of the world’s most potent superfoods. It has been celebrated for its high levels of antioxidants, vitamins, and even potential cancer-fighting properties.

Use it in: Green smoothies blends. Tip: Use sparingly unless you want your smoothie to taste like the ocean!
