🌿 Mindful Morsel

Pumpkin is packed with beta-carotene, an antioxidant that converts to vitamin A and helps fight inflammation while supporting immune and eye health. Paired with flax or chia seeds for omega-3s and fiber, and a scoop of protein powder or collagen for satiety, this smoothie delivers lasting energy in a mindful, delicious way.
