Angel’s Sunrise Smoothie: Anti-Inflammatory Gold

Have you ever woken up, looked at your hand, and thought, “Wow, that is NOT the glowing skin I signed up for”? That was me a few weeks ago, battling a stubborn patch of eczema on my right hand. So, I decided to load up on anti-inflammatory foods to see if I could turn things around. Spoiler alert: it helped! Even better, the smoothie I created in the process became my new favorite morning ritual.

Fight Inflammation: A Smoothie Born Out of Necessity (and a Love for Delicious Things)

It all started on Preparation Day, the day before the Sabbath when I prep meals so I can rest and enjoy the day with my family. I wanted something packed with anti-inflammatory goodness, easy to make, and—most importantly—delicious. The result? A golden-hued, tropical masterpiece that tasted like the sunrise and soothed my skin from the inside out. Hence, the name: Angel’s Sunrise Smoothie.

Anti-Inflammatory: Why This Smoothie Works Wonders

This isn’t just a tasty tropical drink; every ingredient serves a purpose. Let’s break it down:

Ingredient	Health Benefits
Pineapple	Contains bromelain, an enzyme with powerful anti-inflammatory properties that aid digestion and reduce swelling.
Ginger	A natural anti-inflammatory superstar that helps with digestion, fights nausea, and boosts immunity.
Orange	Packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation and support the immune system.
Bananas	Rich in potassium and fiber, they promote gut health and reduce bloating.
Turmeric	Loaded with curcumin, a potent anti-inflammatory compound that fights oxidative stress and supports overall health.
Fresh Ground Pepper	Enhances curcumin absorption by up to 2,000%, making turmeric exponentially more effective.

Fight Inflammation: The Secret to Unlocking Turmeric’s Power

Turmeric is a powerhouse, but on its own, your body doesn’t absorb much of its active compound, curcumin. That’s where fresh ground pepper comes in! Black pepper contains piperine, which boosts curcumin absorption, making this smoothie a true anti-inflammatory elixir.

A Morning Ritual Worth Savoring

The first time I made this smoothie, I blended it up early on Sabbath morning. My husband and I stepped outside with our drinks in hand, watching the sun rise over the horizon. The colors in our glasses mirrored the sky—vibrant golds and oranges, glowing with promise. As we sipped, I could feel the goodness working from the inside out. Not only did my skin improve over the next few days, but I also felt more energized, less bloated, and ready to take on the day.
