Vitality is at the core of my 'Circle of Vitality' concept. Enhanced vitality strengthens your body and mind, acting as the key to a happier and healthier lifestyle. That is why it's so important that we all have the opportunity to achieve it! That's why I have dedicated a whole chapter to smoothies and juices that focus on guiding you towards your vitality.

Add 20 drops Ginkgo Biloba and 1 tsp. 'Udo's Flaxseed Oil' with natural DHA to clear your head. If you really need a boost, add 1 tbsp. acai powder.

THORBJÖRG'S THOUGHTS

“Chia seeds are top of the list as the 'new' superfood. They contain a considerable amount of omega 3 fatty acids - more so than flax seeds. Enjoy them in this smoothie, and give your brain a loving kiss."
