Chocolate ginger turmeric shake

Craving chocolate but avoiding sugar? This is a one-most-days staple, and a go-to breakfast, lunch, snack, or dessert that is so richly satisfying. With raw cacao powder, fresh ginger, dark leafy greens, and ORGANIC INDIA Turmeric Formula Herbal Supplement, this good-for-you shake is packed with nutrition and rich, spicy flavor.  

As well as adding a touch of earthy yet exotic flavor to this decadent-tasting shake, turmeric offers major wellness benefits. Known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, turmeric has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years. This unique blend bolsters immunity and promotes healthy joints. As a bonus, I like to throw in the soluble and insoluble fibers from psyllium, too, supporting digestion and keeping that satisfied, energized feeling lasting longer. 

Quick and easy to prep, this is the perfect grab-and-go breakfast or midday lift. All you need to do is blend and enjoy. Even better, this thick chocolate beverage really can easily double up as a guilt-free dessert. Sip for yourself and see.
