Berry Chia Spiced Smoothie

I really like breakfast smoothies. This one is full of low glycaemic berries, seeds and even anti-inflammatory turmeric for good measure. ⠀⠀⠀

It is thickened with chia and flax seeds, rather than banana, to keep the sugar level down and is bursting with phytoestrogens and soluble fibre – good for hormone balance and cholesterol levels.  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If you don’t fancy the turmeric or cinnamon for breakfast, just leave them out. ⠀⠀
