Super Antioxidant Chia Pudding Recipe
Did you know that humans are one of the only species on earth that don’t manufacture their own vitamin C? For this reason, getting a daily dose from our diets is essential for immune health and reducing signs of aging.
However, it can be challenging to get an ideal dose (especially in winter, or if you haven’t exactly been getting in a lot of fruits and veggies at every meal).
This is why we’ve developed our Paleovalley Essential C Complex, which contains organic, acerola cherry (one of the highest vitamin C-rich foods on the planet), camu camu berry (another vitamin C powerhouse) and amla berry (a fruit that has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic herbal medicine to support heart and brain health). It’s also perfect to use in this easy and bright recipe for a quick Springtime breakfast.
This chia pudding contains our Essential C Complex, as well as antioxidant-rich kiwi and strawberries to further help boost your immune system and brighten your complexion from the inside out.
It’s also a filling and vibrant dessert or breakfast for kiddos in lieu of the Easter candy rush. Our Essential C Complex is made from delicious whole fruits, so they’ll never even know you snuck a vitamin in.
In just 20 minutes, you can whip up these colorful puddings and get more than your recommended daily dose of vitamin C.
