Morning Smoothie To Manage Tinnitus
A healthy lifestyle plays a big role in managing tinnitus, hyperacusis, and misophonia. One of the easiest ways I set the tone for my day is with a smoothie; it’s my go-to morning ritual. I make a batch of five at the start of the week so I have one ready for each workday. I store them in mason jars in the fridge, and just grab one on my way out. If you’ve got a Vitamix, blending everything is a breeze.
Ingredients
- 4 1/2 cups water
- 1 banana
- 5 tablespoons Chia Seeds
- 5 tablespoons Ground Flax Seeds
- 2 scoops True Nutrition Protein Powder
- 1/2 bag Great Value Frozen Zucchini Blend
- 4 cups Frozen Berries
Instructions
Place all the items in the blender and blend until smooth. Store in the refrigerator for up to five days.
If I want to boost my anti-inflammatory foods, I will add ginger, turmeric, and some black pepper, which gives it a nice kick.
