A juicing recipe from Thorbjörg Hafsteinsdottir's "Boost Your Vitality" - enjoy!

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.

Try my Brain Booster, specifically designed to boost your mental capacities! It includes almond milk-feel free to supplement this drink with the recipe in the first chapter.

BRAIN BOOSTER

SERVES 2-3

1 cup unsweetened almond milk

¾ cup soy milk

1 tbsp. chia seeds

1 tbsp. cold pressed flaxseed oil

1 tbsp. lecithin granules

2 tbsp. whey protein powder

¼ cup blackcurrant juice sweetened with concentrated apple juice

2 tbsp. raisin water or 2-3 dates

1 banana

4 pinches of vanilla powder

Chopped lemon peel from ½ lemon

1 tbsp. lemon juice

200g / 7oz frozen blackcurrants

30 fresh mint leaves Blend well and enjoy straight away. It's great as a dessert.

THORBJÖRG'S TRICKS

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."

Thorbjörg's "Boost Your Vitality" is available on iBooks
