Chia Leah Soothing Summer Smoothie

Strawberries help repair stomach lining and taste awesome with red peppers, (both high in vit C), lemon is alkalizing, cayenne fights inflammation and ginger settles the tummy. Chia or flax will provide some healthy fats and antioxidants. Hydrating and an excellent addition to protein filled breakfast, this is one of my faves!
