2. Tone It Up’s Blueberry Fig Smoothie
By Karena Dawn and Katrina Scott, Founders of Tone It Up.
“We have a fave new smoothie that tastes SO GOOD and has some pretty amazing health perks. The secret ingredient: dried figs. Each little fig delivers vitamin B6 that helps lower your homocysteine levels, which decreases your risk for heart disease. Figs also contain potassium that your body needs to prevent muscle fatigue post workout. And they add a ridiculous boost of flavor that your taste buds aren’t expecting! The recipe also includes Perfect Fit Protein, our certified organic, vegan, and gluten-free protein, which will help your muscles recover and jumpstart your metabolism after your daily workout. Drink up buttercup!”
