Let’s face it, we are all really busy, always on the go and it can really be difficult to get all of the nutrients that our body craves on a regular basis. Smoothies are a really great way to consume plenty of nutrients at the same time.
My favorite Naked Nutrition Protein: Clear Naked Whey
Protein smoothies are a tasty and convenient beverage that you can take with you on your way to work or make quickly after a hard workout. My go-to whey isolate powder from my friends from Naked Nutrition is lightly flavored to create a refreshing, high-protein beverage that is perfect for any time of day which is perfect for a smoothie. If you don’t feel like mixing your own smoothie, the Naked Nutrition Naked Whey Protein also tastes great simply mixed with water in a shaker bottle. It comes without artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors like most brands, and they are committed to shortening the steps between their farms and you.
Start your day with my favorite smoothie recipe
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, it sets you up for the day's endeavors and it really makes a difference in your overall mental focus and energy level. My Clear Naked Whey smoothie is really easy because you can take it with you in the car on your way to work, and not feel like you have to wake up extra early to concoct a healthy breakfast. If you are wondering how much protein your body needs, your body needs around 20-30g of protein after your workout in order to repair and refuel those hard-working muscles. My favorite smoothie is really rich in protein and can be an excellent choice for your post-workout meal to ensure you replenish adequately and sufficiently.
