*Bluebelly tip: Smoothies are a moderate source of protein (including 5-HTP and tryptophan), magnesium and vitamin B-6. To increase the content of all nutrients (and add additional anti-oxidants), add 3 scoops of Sustagen powder to your shake.
This is a nutritious meal substitute, that additional protein or Sustagen powder can easily be added to if desired. It can also be purchased from a sandwich or juice bar if you are in a hurry.
