Perfectly Balanced Smoothie for Eliminating Cravings

Eliminate cravings by activating each of the six tastes during every meal. A recipe for a perfectly balanced smoothie based on Ayurvedic principles.

I love Ayurvedic principles. One concept of Ayurveda is that there are six tastes: pungent, sour, sweet, salty, bitter and astringent. According to Ayurveda, we should activate each taste during every meal. By activating each taste, we eliminate cravings because we’ve achieved a perfect balance.

Try hitting all six flavors while juicing and blending smoothies. Here’s my Perfect Balance Juice:

Ingredients:
Bitter: 2 cups of kale
Sour: 1 tbsp lemon juice
Sweet: 1 banana
Salty: 1-inch by 3-inch strip of nori, torn into small pieces
Pungent: 1/8 tsp ginger
Astringent: 1/2 cup pomegranate juice

1 cup of water
1 tsp flax seeds

Blend up the flax seeds first, add the rest of the ingredients to your blender and enjoy!
