Hangover Remedy Smoothie

Now that I’m in my 40s I rarely have the need for a hangover remedy or cure. Those days are long behind me but I’m sure a few people will have the need for this hangover remedy smoothie. The real question is can you stand the noise of the blender? 😉

You’ll notice there are some odd ingredients in this smoothie recipe such as chamomile flowers, slippery elm power and gingerroot. They are there to help with stomach issues and help relax the mind, all good things for treating a hangover, yes? Which also makes this a great smoothie for stomach pains, cramps, sickness and stress.

Ingredients:

• • 1/2 cup apple juice
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 apples
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 inch piece of gingerroot, peeled
  • 1/2 tsp dried Chamomile Flowers
  • 1/2 tsp Slippery Elm Powder (See all Vitamins & Supplements)

Directions

1. In a blender, combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth.
2. And if you are wondering what the heck slippery elm is: Slippery elm is used to relieve gastrointestinal conditions, sore throats, ulcers, and respiratory irritations today. External uses include treatment of skin conditions, vaginitis, and hemorrhoids. It can be used as a cough medicine or as a skin smoother and softener.
