'No-brainer' "Make-it-Happen" daily smoothie - for maintaining / restoring physical and mental health

Easy-to-make, enjoyable, therapeutic daily smoothie (using mainly fresh ingredients) and some supporting supplements, heals, energizes cells, provides important nutrients, builds collagen in connective tissue, normalizes thyroid function and boosts immune system against assault. Ingredients are specifically chosen to include nutrients the body cannot make and are typically missing from most daily diets wreaking havoc with our health:

No brainer daily nutrients for physical / mental health
Magnesium	The “Missing Mineral” – Required for cellular energy production metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and amino acids, formation of bones and teeth, normalizing muscle and nerve function, improving INSULIN sensitivity, reduces blood pressure and much more. Magnesium levels are high in pumpkin and flax seeds, molasses, raw almonds, pine nuts and Brazil nuts.
Iodine	A “no-brainer” for thyroid function and to prevent reproductive organ cancers. Reverses fibrocystic breasts, shrinks ovarian and thyroid cysts, natural antimicrobial
Vitamin C	“God’s Medicine” – This all-important vitamin cannot be stored so must be consumed anew each day for its antioxidant activity in watery areas of the body, for building collagen in all connective tissue in arteries, bones, joints, skin . . ., as well as its anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and immune system boosting abilities. The fresh fruit in the smoothie provide the naturally synergistic components to accompany the supplemental Vitamin C added to the drink. Of note – vitamin C has higher bioavailability as a liquid than a dry powder or tablet.
Vitamin D	“The Sunshine Vitamin” – Directly or indirectly sun-derived antioxidant vitamin D performs so many functions in virtually ALL the body’s cells that without it we simply do not thrive.
Omega-3 fatty acids, Fiber and lignans	In addition to fiber in the fruit, flaxseed in the recipe is “hands-down” the best source of fiber to ensure you never have trouble “going” each day and also comfortably without any trauma! When considering your health this is the first matter to get right. Flaxseed also contains something called lignans – these polyphenol phytonutrients alone have important health benefits – they support the body’s “make things happen” enzymes and provide hormonal balance. Flaxseed in this drink inherently provide 1 T flax oil with its essential plant-sourced omega-3 fatty acids. Additional O3 is obtained with marine oil supplements. If dealing with a health problem or are starting with low omega-3 fat levels you should consider the BUDWIG PROTOCOL
Vitamins A, B, E, K	Vitamin A – The grass vitamin / Vitamin K – For Klotting and Kalcium

"Make-it-Happen" daily smoothie

What's in it?

This once-a-day delicious frothy smoothie and its supporting nutrients provides all the nutrients typically missing from your diet necessary to promote physical and mental health. It contains:

High-dose vitamin C with added collagen-making amino acids. These are found in the so-called Rath-Pauling therapy at the “Somewhere in the middle” maintenance-level that can be adjusted to your specific need. Vitamin C is a crucially important antioxidant (especially concentrated in brain tissues) and the added amino-acids Lysine and Proline are used to build collagen in the body’s connective tissues, involved in CVD, arthritis, osteoporosis and more.
3 T Flaxseed per person – provides 1T maintenance dose of omega-3 oil plus fiber and lignans. This is the maximum daily dose, so do not add to other recipes for the day.
Important supplements are taken at appropriate times in the day to supply health-essential nutrients not in the smoothie

Drink 2 hours away from any marine oil supplement or 'O₃-Fix' recipe

The “Make-it-Happen” smoothie should be consumed at least 2 hours before or after taking a marine oil supplement or consuming any ‘O3-Fix’ BUDWIG PROTOCOL recipe. The smoothie contains an ADULT preventative maintenance dose of the Rath-Pauling therapy (supplementing 400 mg – 1.5g vitamin C / day with appropriate amounts of the amino acids L-lysine and L-proline). These or any other antioxidant supplements are prevented from interfering with the therapeutic activity of the O3 fatty acids by leaving a couple hours between them.

How to make the "Make-it-Happen" smoothie

Heads-up!

This is a deceptively powerful therapy that will go to work on you right from the start. Be prepared for some detox symptoms, called the Herxheimer Reaction. These can be experienced as feeling tired, a slight fever, headache, diarrhea, pain in joints, muscles bones, nausea, rashes and more. May last several days or even weeks, but stay with it and you’ll be a new person!

Recipe is for 2 people – proportionally adjust for 1 person or more than 2 people

Instructions

Takes less than 10 minutes to make if you have your BLENDER OUT and INGREDIENTS (and measuring spoons) READILY ACCESSIBLE

Add ALL chosen ingredients to a powerful container blender (a Vitamix works best) – then blend:

24 oz. glass of ice filled with Spring or filtered water + 4oz. water
Choose a couple of fresh or frozen soft fruit (e.g. guava, kiwi, ½-1 orange (leave some peel for its antioxidants), pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, mango (leave some peel, high polyphenol content), blueberries, etc.). An orange helps cut the taste of Lysine powder.
1/2 – 1 banana
1-2 tsp. organic, raw honey (if not adding banana)
2″ ginger root (optional – anti-inflammatory polyphenols, adds a shot of zing! )
A handful of spinach leaves (optional – for magnesium, calcium+)
2 tsp. beet powder (optional – vitamin B complex)
¼ tsp. pure vanilla essence (optional – anti-inflammatory)
2 Tbsp. organic whey protein ¤ or add a spoonful of organic yogurt. Adds creaminess

Rath-Pauling therapy ingredients for providing vitamin C and building collagen

Maintenance dose suggestions of Vitamin C, Lysine and Proline Powders
Who / Dose Type	Daily Dose	Vitamin C POWDER (1g = ~ ¼ tsp.)	Lysine POWDER (1g ~½ tsp+.	Proline POWDER (1g = ½ tsp.)
ADULT < 30y HEALTHY / NON_SMOKER	400mg	~ 1/8 tsp	~ 1/3 tsp.	~ 1/16 tsp
ADULT < 30 y (unhealthy, smoker) ADULT >= 30y (healthy, non-smoker)	1g	¼ tsp.	~ 2/3 tsp.	scant 1/8 tsp
ADULT >= 30 y (unhealthy, smoker)	1.5g	1/3 tsp.	~ 7/8 tsp.	1/8 tsp

A good place to start is at the 1 g vitamin C / person dose (remembering that the following quantities in this recipe are for 2 people):

½ tsp. vitamin C powder E.g. Amazon
1 1/3 tsp. Lysine powder E.g. Amazon
¼ tsp. Proline powder. E.g. Amazon.

Lastly, add:

5 Tbsp. whole organic flaxseeds. (2 ½ Tbsp. / person). Start at a low speed on the blender to give them chance to mix into the liquid, then speed up.

Do not add flaxseeds to this drink if you are having your maximum daily dose of 2 ½ Tbsp. in another recipe, such as Flaxy-Oats ‘n’ Fruit Porridge or Flax ‘n’ Fruit Crepe.

Serve in tall 24 oz glasses and immediately enjoy

+ DAILY support supplements for "No-brainer' "Make-it-Happen" smoothie

Iodine

When / How to take? – Early in the morning at least 2 hours away from the “Make-it-Happen” smoothie (or other ANTIOXIDANT supplements). Take in a little water, juice or milk:

1 drop 2% Lugol’s iodine (provides a maintenance dose of ~3 mg iodine + iodide. The Lugols’ page explains how to start with a higher dose to deal with a likely deficiency)

Mineral and ANTIOXIDANT vitamin supplements

When How to take? – Take with the “Make-it-Happen” smoothie (if taking it) or 2 hours way from O₃supplements or “O₃-Fix” BUDWIG PROTOCOL recipe

400 mg magnesium (as chelated magnesium supplement E.g. Swanson Ultra Albion Magnesium Glycinate or prefer transdermal magnesium chloride (less convenient but fast, effective, cheap and bypasses GI tract). (Highly functional mineral, also for omega-3 conversion enzymes)
Zinc – 8 mg (W) or 11 mg (M). Prefer zinc citrate, chelate, acetate, mono-methionine or gluconate (for omega-3 conversion enzymes)
Selenium – 200 mcg seleno-methionine or consume 4-6 Brazil nuts
Vitamin A – supplement or include A-rich foods
Vitamin B-complex – prefer sublingual form (for omega-3 conversion enzymes)
Vitamin E – supplement 400 IU mixed gamma-tocopherol. Protects O₃ fatty acids in cell membranes from oxidation
Vitamin K – K1 in spinach, K2 in fermented foods (natto, sauerkraut), aged cheese – K2 puts calcium where it belongs in bones and teeth, not in soft tissue, such as your arteries. Can supplement K2.

Omega-3 EPA / DHA marine oil supplements

When / How to take? – Take with food – at least 2 hours away from Iodine or ANTIOXIDANT supplements (E.g. vitamin C, “Make-it-Happen” smoothie, CoQ10)

The Omega-3 EPA / DHA form of omega-3 fatty acids is necessary for most all of us, since many issues, especially our age, interfere with conversion rate of plant-sourced omega-3 ALA to EPA / DHA. However, if you regularly consume two portions of oily fish per week you are probably meeting your need for EPA / DHA. The high-oil-content fish include salmon, trout, mackerel, tuna (skipjack is less toxic). Eating fish for omega-3

1 or 2 -1000 mg fish oil capsule. Non-concentrated natural wild salmon oil is an excellent choice since it is not chemically processed.
or 3-500 mg Antarctic krill oil
or ½ tsp. quality cod liver oil

(can take a proportional combination e.g. 1 -1000 mg fish oil and 2 – 500 mg Krill oil)
