Probably most of you have ever woken up in the morning and just felt like staying in bed, as your body is stiff and exhausted. As a result, most people reach for a cup of coffee to give them the jolt of caffeine to get their day started. However, coffee is not the healthiest thing you can consume in the morning.
Your body is at its most acidic point in the morning, which is actually normal. While an acidic body is never good, your body undergoes different processes as you sleep which release acids into your system. This is one of the reasons why your body feels groggy, and coffee, that is, additional acid, is far from a good idea.
In contrary, you need to alkalize your body at the start of your day!
Therefore, we will reveal the recipes of three quick, simple and natural 3-ingredient health shots which will wake your body up and provide energy for the whole day.
Undoubtedly, it is extremely important to drink high alkaline beverages first thing in the morning to balance out your pH. However, you don’t need it in large doses, so the following health shots are the perfect solution.
Digestion Booster Shot
In order to prepare your entire body for the following day, you need to stimulate the work of the digestive system from the morning. Issues with your digestive system can keep the rest of your body running at a less than optimal standard and leave you feeling tired all day. This health shot is the perfect drink to prepare and boost the work of your digestive system.
Ingredients:
- ½ an ounce of lemon juice
- ½ an ounce of organic apple cider vinegar
- A pinch of organic ground ginger
All three of these ingredients have great digestive boosting properties to ensure that your system is running smoothly all day long. Feel free to mix in some water to make it easier to swallow, if you find this shot too strong for you.
Metabolism Booster Shot
You may doubt that these ingredients will make your body less acidic, but they are actually some of the best ones to consume to alkaline your body.
Ingredients:
- ½ an ounce of organic apple cider vinegar
- ½ an ounce of lemon juice
- A pinch of cayenne pepper
If it is too strong for you to drink the vinegar and lemon juice in the morning, try adding 2 ounces of water. Lemon juice and apple cider vinegar work to get your blood to a pH level that is more alkaline, exactly what nature intended. That pinch of cayenne also stimulates your metabolism which can help in the process of losing weight and may freshen your body in the morning.
Green Smoothie Shot
The Green Smoothie Shot contains 10 grams of protein, vitamin C and B, and loads of potassium.
Ingredients:
- ¼ of frozen organic blueberries
- 1 slice of ginger
- 2 cups of organic spinach
Optional: some Stevia for added sweetness
Mix all of these ingredients together in a blender, and add some water if you want to loosen the consistency. You can even enrich your smoothie by adding in some spirulina, a superfood algae that is also known as nature’s multivitamin. You can prepare a big batch of this drink and keep it in the fridge.
It’s important that we ensure our bodies get all the nutrients it needs the first thing in the morning, after repairing and healing itself during the night. Moreover, they will help you keep your body as alkaline as possible, which will prevent diseases. Apart from all these health benefits, these healthy shots are delicious! Enjoy!
