Notes

GAPS placement: Full GAPS after ripe berries, fresh lemon, raw honey, and the selected homemade milk are introduced and tolerated.
Milk: Use homemade coconut milk or properly prepared homemade nut milk. Do not use oat milk, rice milk, canned coconut milk, or commercial milk with additives.
Sweetener: Use the measured 5 tablespoons raw honey. Maple syrup and agave are excluded from this GAPS card.
Salt: Use natural sea salt. Potassium salt and flavored electrolyte products are excluded.
Blender: Use Ebonie's exact Ninja Professional Plus Kitchen System BN801 rather than a generic blender.
Texture cue: The finished smoothie is uniformly vivid pink, thick but drinkable, and free of strawberry pieces or an air pocket by the blade.
