Antioxidant Collagen Quencher
The beautiful blue colour of the butterfly pea flower (blue matcha) is due to its rich content of anthocyanins, polyphenol compounds found in blueberries, purple cabbage, and other red/purple fruits and veggies. Thank the turmeric and omega-3s from flax in this smoothie for helping to fight inflammation, while the collagen helps support healthy joints, skin, hair, and nails.
