This kids smoothie contains the right balance of nutrients to keep brains sharp, mood lifted and energy levels even. No sugar highs from this smoothie!
Sunflower lecithin contained in sunflower seeds is an important phospholipid that plays a role in brain health. It is used for calm and focus. Phospholipids help the brain cells to communicate properly helping your children’s mood, mind and mental performance.
Hemp seeds are a non-fishy option if you are keen to boost up your children’s intake of Omega 3. They also contain healthy fibre and are good for kids who struggle to poop!
