If you’re looking for something sweet, creamy and actually nourishing, this Strawberries & Cream Smoothie is it. Made with juicy strawberries, creamy Greek yoghurt, pomegranate juice, flax meal, Chief Nutrition’s Collagen and a little gut-loving boost from Chief Nutrition’s Colostrum. 

The Chief Colostrum is the secret ingredient here, adding naturally occurring proteins and immune-supportive compounds alongside the other nourishing ingredients in this smoothie. 

Greek yoghurt + collagen give you a beautiful protein boost, while flax meal brings fibre and healthy fats, including plant-based omega-3s. And the pomegranate juice isn’t just there for flavour - pomegranates are naturally rich in polyphenols, plant compounds that help support the body’s antioxidant defences.

CHIEF COLOSTRUM Chief Colostrum is the gut-loving addition to this smoothie, providing naturally occurring immunoglobulins, lactoferrin and other bioactive compounds that support the gut lining and immune system.

CHIEF UNFLAVOURED COLLAGEN PROTEIN Chief Collagen Protein adds an extra protein boost while providing the amino acids that support collagen production throughout the body.

POMEGRANATE JUICE Pomegranates are naturally rich in polyphenols, plant compounds with antioxidant properties that help support the body’s natural defence systems and feed our good gut bacteria.

FLAX MEAL Flax meal is a beautiful source of fibre and plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, which support healthy digestion, cardiovascular health and brain function. The fibre also helps to slow the release of natural sugars from the berries, while adding a subtle nutty flavour and extra texture.

ORGANIC GREEK YOGHURT Organic Greek yoghurt provides a deliciously creamy base while adding a generous source of high-quality protein, calcium and beneficial fats. The protein helps support muscle repair and satiety, while the fermented nature of yoghurt can also provide beneficial bacteria to support a healthy gut microbiome.
