Pomegranate Power Smoothie: A Delicious Blend of Antioxidants, Energy & Recovery

Whether you're recovering from a workout, fuelling your afternoon, or looking for a way to support your metabolism without the sugar crash — this Pomegranate Power Smoothie ticks all the boxes.

It’s more than just a pretty pink drink. It’s a functional blend of polyphenols, healthy fats, fibre, and blood sugar–balancing ingredients designed to nourish active women and support metabolic health.

✨ Why Pomegranate?

Pomegranates are one of nature’s most powerful antioxidant-rich fruits, packed with polyphenols that support:

• 🔥 Inflammation reduction (especially helpful post-exercise or during hormonal shifts)

• 🩸 Improved blood flow and circulation

• ⚡ Endurance and performance through better oxygen delivery

Research suggests that pomegranate juice may improve muscle recovery and reduce oxidative stress from intense physical activity. So yes — your smoothie can absolutely be part of your performance toolkit.

🧠 What Makes This Smoothie Functional?

This blend goes beyond taste. It’s built to support energy, recovery, and hormone balance with ingredients that work with your body, not against it.

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder or collagen (optional but ideal post-training)

• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or coconut water (electrolyte support)
