Chocolate Collagen Protein Shake
Add to Favourites list
Nutrition
The Chocolate Collagen Protein Shake is widely regarded as one of the healthiest and most effective protein shakes available. Packed with collagen, protein, and antioxidants, this shake delivers essential nutrients that support skin health, muscle recovery, joint function, and gut lining integrity. Collagen is especially important for maintaining and repairing the gut lining, which helps prevent and heal leaky gut syndrome—a common factor in many food intolerances and immune system dysfunctions. Despite containing fewer than 200 calories per serving, this shake is rich in nutrients, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a nourishing yet low-calorie option.
Many members have found remarkable benefits by swapping their typical afternoon sugar snacks, such as biscuits, sweets, or dairy chocolate, with this Chocolate Collagen Protein Shake. The results speak for themselves: noticeable weight loss, improved skin elasticity, more sustained energy throughout the day, enhanced sleep quality, reduced joint stiffness, stronger nails, and thicker, healthier hair. This transformation highlights how nutrient-dense choices can positively impact overall health and well-being.
In addition to its health benefits, this shake tastes delicious, making it easy to incorporate into daily routines. It serves as an ideal post-workout recovery drink, helping muscles rebuild and reducing inflammation after exercise. It’s also perfect as a quick pick-me-up on busy days when energy levels dip, but healthy nutrition is still a priority.
With its combination of gut-supporting collagen, muscle-repairing protein, and powerful antioxidants, the Chocolate Collagen Protein Shake is a versatile, satisfying, and effective way to support the body’s natural healing processes while enjoying a tasty treat. It’s no wonder so many people have made this shake a staple in their healthy lifestyle.

Chocolate and Sea Salt Brownies
Add to Favourites list
Nutrition
Every time these Chocolate and Sea Salt Brownies are made, they disappear quickly—everyone loves them! What’s even better is that they taste richer and more indulgent than regular brownies, yet they are completely dairy-free, gluten-free, and grain-free. This makes them a fantastic option for those with dietary restrictions or anyone looking for a healthier treat.
The recipe uses ground almonds, which are packed with essential minerals like zinc, potassium, magnesium, and vitamin E. These nutrients play important roles in supporting brain function, skin health, respiratory wellbeing, and cardiovascular support. Ground almonds also help regulate blood sugar levels, making these brownies a smarter choice compared to traditional sugary desserts.
Cocoa, the star ingredient, is not only delicious but also highly beneficial. It protects heart health, boosts the immune system, strengthens the intestinal lining against harmful microorganisms, and helps soothe gastrointestinal discomfort. Adding coconut sugar to the mix further enhances the gut-friendly benefits, as it has natural anti-fungal properties and helps combat unhealthy gut bacteria.
These Chocolate and Sea Salt Brownies are a wonderful guilt-free indulgence that delivers both great flavor and health benefits. You can enjoy every bite knowing you’re treating your body well. Perfect for sharing with family and friends or savoring as a personal treat, these brownies bring deliciousness and nutrition together in one satisfying package. Whether for a snack or dessert, they’re sure to impress and leave you wanting more, all without the usual digestive discomfort or health compromises.
Ingredients
- 2 eggs (at room temperature)
- 2/3 cup or 80g of ground almonds
- 1/4 cup or 80g of cacao powder
- 1/2 cup or 130g of coconut oil
- 1 1/3 or 200g of coconut sugar
- sea salt to decorate
Directions
Preheat your oven at 350 F / 175 C (fan oven).
Beat the eggs and add the coconut sugar, followed by the ground almonds and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
Add the melted (but cooled down) coconut oil and the cacao powder, mix gently as the cacoa powder is fine.
Pour in a greased muffin tray (I use coconut oil) lined with baking paper. Bake at 350 F / 175 C (fan oven) for 18 minutes.
Let it cool down and decorate with sea salt flakes.
Enjoy!! I love having these with a cup of coffee. Total treat but not too naughty.*if you are allergic to nuts or prefer not to use almond flour (ground almonds) for any other reason, you can replace it with quinoa flour. 80g or 2/3 cup of almond flour can be replaced with 50 g or 2/3 cup of quinoa flour.
