The perfect smoothie should have a lot of fiber and a lot of protein. I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect smoothie for years. They’re listed below. They’re all great, but the latest version seems like one that I can stick to.
Smoothie #1
Late 2023, my cholesterol got really high and so I worked to lower it. In this article I describe the smoothie I used to lower my cholesterol. For completeness, here it is again:
- 8 oz unsweetened soy milk
- 30 g Gold Standard whey
- 12 g chia seeds (soaked)
- 8 g psyllium husk
- 16 g peanut-butter powder
- 5 g cinnamon
- 5 g unsweetened cocoa
This was a good one, but for some reason whey protein doesn’t sit well with my stomach. So I decided to switch it up.
Smoothie #2
I’m slightly obsessed with Bryan Johnson and his quest to live forever. This smoothie is an ode to him.
- 8 oz unsweetened soy milk
- 2 cups water
- 68 g Truvani unflavored pea protein
- 126 g frozen mixed berries from Costco
- 60 g soaked chia seeds (12 grams dry)
- 10 g psyllium husk
- 12 grams of chlorella
- 6 grams Blueprint Cocoa Powder
- 10 grams Blueprint collagen
- 1 gram turmeric
- 5 grams creatine
This is a great smoothie with a ton of protein and fiber. Unfortuantely, it tastes like shit. So I updated to the latest version I’m on.
Smoothie #3 (The latest!)
- 8 oz unsweetened soy milk
- 2 cups water
- 68 g Truvani unflavored pea protein
- 126 g frozen mixed berries from Costco
- 60 g soaked chia seeds (12 grams dry)
- 10 g psyllium husk
This tastes pretty good, satisfies a nice craving for something sweet and keps me full.
In this version, I removed chlorella, cocoa, collagen, turmeric and creatiune from Smoothie version #2.
But I still take this stuff every day. Now I throw it in a glass, mix it up and down it in the morning right when I wake up.
Enjoy! I hope you live forever!
xoxo, Fiber Papi
