Blueberry Brazil Nut Smoothie

This smoothie recipe uses raw brazil nuts and chia seeds as the base—a protein and healthy fat-rich way to start your day. The brazil nuts provide an abundance of selenium—a mineral that can often be deficient in many people’s diets. Selenium is used in the body to make proteins necessary for detoxification, and for proper immune system and thyroid function. Serve this smoothie for breakfast or a late-night snack!
