When Brylee Knox moved to a new city for her job in marketing, her eating habits took a hit. She was grabbing takeout for lunch and skipping breakfast altogether.
Within months, she began feeling constant bloating and fatigue. That’s when she decided to make a small but impactful change—a daily gut health smoothie.
Brylee’s first attempts were trial and error. Some blends tasted too grassy, others were too sweet. Eventually, she found her perfect formula: a mix of spinach, kefir for probiotics, frozen blueberries, a tablespoon of flaxseeds, and a touch of honey. It was creamy, tangy, and just sweet enough to make her look forward to it every morning.
The results were noticeable within weeks. Her digestion improved, her skin cleared, and she felt more focused at work. The smoothie wasn’t just a drink—it became a part of her morning ritual. She would blend it while listening to her favorite podcast, sipping it slowly before heading to the office.
Brylee also discovered that her smoothie kept her full until lunch, preventing the mid-morning snack attacks that used to derail her diet. And on busy days, it became an easy lunch substitute, packed with nutrients her gut needed to thrive.
Now, even when traveling, she seeks out smoothie bars or books an Airbnb with a blender, unwilling to skip what she calls her “gut’s best friend.”
Her advice? Don’t overcomplicate it. Choose ingredients that you enjoy and that make your body feel good. The best routine is the one you can stick to—and for Brylee, this smoothie is here to stay.
