Notes

GAPS placement: Full GAPS after ripe banana, ripe orange, ripe strawberries, raw honey if used, 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: Taste first. The measured 2 tablespoons raw honey are optional; maple syrup and agave are excluded from this GAPS card.
Water: Divide the 6 fluid ounces into 2 equal portions. Blend with the first half, then add the second half after releasing the air pocket.
Excluded source add-ins: Packaged collagen, protein powders, potassium chloride, and electrolyte powders are not included in this GAPS card.
Blender: Use Ebonie's exact Ninja Professional Plus Kitchen System BN801 rather than a generic blender.
Texture cue: The finished smoothie is uniformly coral-pink, thick and creamy, with no fruit pieces or trapped air pocket.
