BOOSTER BLEND MOCHA SMOOTHIE

/

Start your day off right with this nutrient-dense chocolate and coffee blend!  It can be enjoyed warm or cold!

Not a coffee drinker?  Even if you omit the espresso shot or you're a decaf lover like me, BOOSTER BLEND is packed with natural energy and mood boosters including maca, reishi, and cacao powders.  Add in some healthy fats, fibre, and protein, and this tasty shake is certain to keep you going all morning!  

Maca has also been used for thousands of years.  Touted as the "Incan superfood", it has been long celebrated for its ability to boost energy, stamina, endurance, libido and sexual function in both men and women!

Reishi mushrooms are sometimes called the "king of mushrooms".  They have energy and immune-boosting effects, as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.  Studies suggest that reishi mushrooms may help balance hormones, improve liver function, and reduce the risk of infection and allergies.
