Have you been looking for a drink to renew your energy, help you feel great, and improve digestion? These blue spirulina wellness shots contain a diverse nutritional profile that can help supercharge your body. Compared to other wellness shots, these ones are among the best, at least in our opinion. They contain ingredients that exhibit impressive anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and detoxifying activity. Think of these shots as bright blue elixirs for total body health. No fancy juicing equipment needed, either! Add everything to a blender, blend until smooth, and pour through a fine mesh sieve, pressing the contents to extract every last drop of juice.
Blue spirulina gives these wellness shots their vibrant color, and it is also the star of the show. Derived from blue-green algae, this superfood has a high protein content and anti-inflammatory properties. It also contains phycocyanin, a powerful antioxidant that supports brain function and combats free radicals. Blue spirulina also provides vitamins B1, B2, and B3, in addiction to omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Several studies found that blue spirulina significantly lowered LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglyceride levels. At the same times, spirulina works to increase HDl (good) cholesterol levels.
These wellness shots also contain fresh ginger, apple, lemon, and maple syrup for a touch of sweetness to balances the spicy ginger and tart lemon. Ginger works to boost circulation and support digestion, while lemon provides vitamin C, promotes hydration, and helps alkalize the body. Not only is apple rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, but it also contains natural sweetness to help balance the wellness shots. In addition to sweetening the shots, maple syrup also provides manganese and zinc, two essential trace minerals.
