Diana's Green Tea SuperSoy Shake

• 1 cup vanilla flavored soymilk (calcium fortified)
• 1 cup iced green tea, unsweetened
• 1/4 cup orange juice concentrate
• 6-10 baby carrots
• 3/4 cup frozen strawberries
• 1/2 cup yogurt (unflavored or sweetened, depending on taste preference)
• 1 Tbsp each wheat bran, oat bran, wheat germ, flaxseed

Directions:

• Blend together for 1 - 2 minutes. 

Makes: ~ 4 cups

This is a very *light* tasting shake. When made with the unflavored yogurt, it is particularly preferred by people undergoing chemo who cannot tolerate sweet foods. 

 

Special notes:

1. Either use calcium-fortified soymilk or calcium-fortified OJ concentrate, not both. The body can only absorb ~500-600 mg calcium from one meal.
2. Prostate cancer patients - read my FAQs regarding the amount of calcium in your diet.
3. If more protein is needed, consider adding soy protein powder, whey protein powder, or dried skim milk powder.
