Glow & glisten smoothie for skin health

This smoothie will help you get glowing skin. Radiate with organic, whole food vitamin C, omegas from chia seeds, hydration from cucumbers and celery and beauty benefits from echinacea tea!

You’ve probably heard about the vital role collagen plays in skin health, but did you know without adequate amounts of dietary vitamin C, the body can’t actually form or store collagen?^1,2 This means if you don’t have enough vitamin C, your body goes through a triage process and keeps it for vital functions only! Leaving nothing left for synthesizing collagen which can lead to various beauty related side affects which are actually vanity symptoms of nutritional deficiencies.  

Luckily our PureFood C will ensure your body has enough whole food vitamin c to both support immunity and adrenal health AND glowing skin, hair growth and strong nails!

This recipe was created in collaboration by our in house Holistic Nutritionist Kari Fraser, CNP and our Formulator and Founder; Dr. David Wang, ND.
