Have your cake–and drink it, too! Made only with purely nutritious ingredients, this dreamy carrot cake smoothie with ceylon cinnamon is bursting with all the delicious flavors of the favorite springtime dessert and a host of wellness benefits, too. We like to sprinkle in all the warm spices of the classic treat, but if you’re pressed for time or scant on spice, our ORGANIC INDIA USA Cinnamon Spice Psyllium Pre & Probiotic Fiber is all you need, blending dreamily with raw carrots, pineapple, and banana.

Used in Ayurveda to cleanse and detox the large intestines, Psyllium is your digestive system’s best friend. An excellent source of both soluble and insoluble, natural dietary fiber, Psyllium nourishes beneficial gut bacteria, supporting gastrointestinal health, healthy elimination and regularity, and whole body wellbeing. Our ORGANIC INDIA USA Psyllium Pre & Probiotic Fibers not only offer a simple and convenient way to build Psyllium into your daily diet, they further incorporate three digestion-soothing Ayurvedic herbs as well as a strong dose of Probiotics, all working together to offer powerful support for a healthy microbiome.

Brightly refreshing, this simple recipe welcomes all kinds of addends, making it great for a light snack or a filling mini meal. Feel free to add in your favorite protein powder, chia seeds, a dollop of yogurt, shredded coconut, and more. Whatever you choose to mix in or leave out, this shake makes it clear that cozy spice has a beautiful place in spring and all year round.
