What is Super Scoop? (Plus a berry smoothie you’ll love)
Chances are, you’ve seen me talking about something very close to my heart lately. My Super Scoop superfood product is something I’ve had in mind for years, and I’m so thrilled to have brought it to life for you to experience.
THE POWER OF PLANTS
You also know that I’m a proud vegetarian, and I pay special attention to including nutrient-rich plant-based foods into my diet. For that reason, I’m a huge believer in supplementation. As much as I’d like to sit down to five or six portions of whole fruit and veggies, this just isn’t going to happen on a daily basis! Being realistic about what I can accomplish each day goes a long way towards reaching those healthy goals. I take great care to choose quality supplements that serve as my insurance policy in case I can’t take in the nutrients I need through food alone. I have a somewhat (ok, very) unpredictable schedule, and supplementation plays a huge role in keeping some consistency in my diet.
AN EASIER HEALTH OPTION
Then, organising my own daily diet is a harried enough affair, without me stressing about Bella’s diet too. I wanted to tackle that ever-present ‘mom guilt’ by at least making healthy eating a little easier when it comes to our little ones. Super Scoop superfood powders have therefore been my saving grace for my dietary concerns – for both me and my family. In one little scoop, I’ve made sure that essential vitamins and minerals, fibre, plant protein and even probiotics are ticked off the ‘to do’ list. In its simplest form, you can drink it with water, then you can get creative and chuck it into just about anything: yoghurt, oats, smoothies, baked goods – even icing!
This is what you can expect from every Super Scoop superfood serving:
- 50 superfoods
- 100% vegan-friendly
- 100 million CPU probiotic
- Gluten-free
- Fat-free
- High fibre
- Dairy-free probiotic
- Non-GMO
- Low calories
- Preservative-free
I made sure Super Scoop was practical enough to use in a stir-and-go manner – but it’s also a powerful nutritional additive to smoothies and other meals. Here’s a smoothie recipe from my cute little Super Scoop Recipe Booklet.
