Creamy, naturally sweet, and made with ingredients chosen to support your body during that time of the month.

When cravings, bloating, cramps, and mood swings hit all at once, this PMS Smoothie works with your body instead of against it. It blends protein, healthy fats, fiber, and anti-inflammatory ingredients into one satisfying drink that tastes like a treat — not a “health” smoothie.

Why It Works

• Supports hormone balance: Ingredients rich in calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin B6 may help ease common PMS symptoms.
• Naturally satisfying: Creamy texture and natural sweetness help curb cravings without relying on processed snacks.
• Anti-inflammatory boost: Turmeric and whole foods help support overall comfort and mood.

Recipe

Ingredients

• ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 small banana (fresh or frozen)
• ½ cup frozen pineapple
• 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
• ¼ teaspoon turmeric
• ¾–1 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
• Optional: drizzle of honey if extra sweetness is desired
• Optional: pinch of black pepper (helps enhance turmeric absorption)

Instructions

1. Add to blender: Place all ingredients into a high-speed blender.
2. Blend: Blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Adjust consistency: Add more milk as needed for desired thickness. Serve immediately.

Getting Kids Involved

Ages 3–5:

• Add banana pieces to the blender.
• Help sprinkle in pumpkin seeds.

Ages 6–9:

• Measure yogurt and pineapple.
• Add turmeric carefully with supervision.

Ages 10+:

Pro Tips, Meal Prep & Time Savers

• Freeze banana slices: Keep pre-sliced bananas in the freezer for extra creaminess.
• Use frozen pineapple: Creates a thicker texture without needing ice.
• Add protein: A scoop of vanilla protein powder can make this even more filling.
• Prep smoothie packs: Combine banana, pineapple, and pumpkin seeds in freezer bags for quick blending.
• Listen to your body: Adjust ingredients depending on what feels supportive — more banana for cramps, extra seeds for magnesium, or a thicker texture for dessert-style comfort.

Creamy, comforting, and thoughtfully balanced — this PMS Smoothie is a simple way to nourish your body while still honoring those very real cravings.

Notes

• Why the Black Pepper?
  Black pepper helps enhance the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric.
• Make It Vegan:
  Swap the Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt or almond milk yogurt. Choose a variety fortified with calcium and vitamin D for added nutritional support.
• Boost the Protein:
  Adding collagen peptides or protein powder helps keep you fuller longer and supports steady energy.
• Adjust the Texture:
  Add more milk for a thinner smoothie or a few ice cubes for a thicker consistency.
