Acai Berries – Acai berries are a Brazilian superfood where they are a national staple. In addition to many vitamins and minerals, their most powerful health benefits come from their remarkable antioxidant profile and host of beneficial plant compounds, including anthocyanins. Acai berries are known for lowering cholesterol levels, improving brain function, and for treating various types of cancer.

Bananas – Bananas are very healthy, readily available, and one of the least expensive fruits you can buy. They have relatively few calories, are rich in nutrients such as vitamin C and potassium, are full of potent antioxidants including flavonoids and animes, and are high in dietary fiber. Studies have shown that bananas can improve insulin sensitivity and may improve kidney health.

Apple Juice – Apples are the most widely consumed fruit globally and boast more than 7,000 different varieties. They provide significant amounts vitamin C, vitamin K, copper, and potassium, and are loaded with power antioxidants, especially polyphenols. Apples can help lower cholesterol levels, reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, and promote gut health as a prebiotic.

Strawberry Juice – Strawberries are a flavorful staple of many healthy smoothies and shakes. They are an excellent source of several important antioxidants and beneficial plant compounds including pelargonidin, ellagic acid, ellagitannins, and procyanidins. Strawberries are widely known to decrease the risk of heart disease, help regulate blood sugar, and reduce the risk of certain cancers.

Juice It Up Ultimate Açaí Smoothie Recipe

Juice It Up Ultimate Açaí smoothie recipe tastes like a berry banana shake, but with a jolt of energy. This recipe will show you how to make one.
Ingredients
- 1 cup acai berries
- 1 cup bananas, frozen, sliced
- 1 cup apple juice
- 1/2 cup strawberry juice
- 1/2 cup ice
- 1 tbsp guarana
- 1 scoop Collagen Boost, optional
Instructions
- Place açaí berries, bananas, apple juice, strawberry juice, and guarana into a blender and secure the lid.
- Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
- Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
- Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.
Notes
- For ease of use, we recommend peeling and slicing a number of bananas, putting them in a freezer bag, and storing them in your freezer for quick access.
- If you don't have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.
