BLUEBERRY ICE-CREAM 🫐
This 30 second ice-cream is probably FAVOURITE vegan food ever!! I literally eat it every day, often with different fruits 😋
It's RAW, sugar and oil free. All natural.
This is made from 2 parts, pre sliced frozen banana, 1 part frozen blueberries and enough plant milk to just get a spin going (usually about 1 inch in blender).
Make sure you spin for a FULL 30 seconds for creaminess.
You can top with chocolate, nuts, seeds, coconut, granola. The choices are limitless.
Kids will love it!!

What a great idea …

Magnesium is a mineral that is often overlooked, but it plays a critical role in maintaining human health.

Magnesium plays a key role for the proper functioning of the heart, bones, muscles, nerves, and other areas of the body. Without enough magnesium, these areas could struggle.

Despite its importance, it is easy to become low in magnesium, but the good news is that it can be improved by increasing the intake of magnesium-rich foods like pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, spinach, almonds, cashews, peanuts, and avocados. If you struggle to get enough magnesium in your diet, you may also want to consider taking our high-quality magnesium supplement as part of your daily routine.

What is it about walking, in particular, that makes it so amenable to thinking and writing? The answer begins with changes to our chemistry.
