Anti-Aging Smoothie

Anti-Aging Smoothie
by Kelley Herring

This smoothie has it all: potent cell-protecting antioxidants from the blueberries and acai; probiotics from the kefir, and high-quality protein and vitamin C from the HealthFX Whey Advanced. While you might think vitamin C is one of the easiest nutrients to get in your diet, a USDA study showed up to 23% of Americans aren’t getting enough.1 This tasty treat provides a hefty 1670% of your daily requirement.
