I used to be extremely conscious about what kind of sugar I was putting in my body after watching Sugar: The Bitter Truth. I was a huge sugar addict. Over the last couple of months, I’ve fallen off the wagon in a big way and have been trying to haul myself back on — but I have very weak upper body strength! That said, Genuine Health has been a huge help.

As I continue to ramp up my fitness, I’ve been relying on the brand’s fermented Greek yogurt protein+ to round out my diet and recovery. It’s packed with 25 grams of fully fermented protein, which is easier to absorb in order to strengthen my gut health! Sometimes I’m lazy and just gulp it down with water. Other times I’m much more kind to myself. In fact, I’ve incorporated it into a key “dessert” that I used to make all the time when I wanted something sweet. Check out my recipe below:

BANANA CINNAMON SMOOTHIE

Ingredients:
1 banana
1 tbs of cinnamon (or to taste)
1-2 drops of vanilla extract
1 cup of almond milk
1 cup of ice
2 scoops of fermented Greek yogurt proteins+

Directions:
Dump it all in a blender (I use the coveted Vitamix) and blend until smooth. Add a cinnamon stick for garnish and drink away!
