Green Guru Smoothie
Serves 2
- 1 avocado
- 5-8 romaine leaves
- 1 cucumber
- 2 ounces E3Live
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 banana or 1-2 pears
- Stevia to taste or 1 tsp agave
Place all the ingredients into a blender, blend until smooth ... enjoy!
So You Drank the Smoothie and You Feel Kinda Blissed Out - Here's Why.
That smoothie you just drank contained PEA. Phenylethylamine (PEA) has been dubbed the "love chemical" due to it's ability to create feelings of attraction, excitement, or euphoria. When we fall in love our PEA levels increase, making us feel full of optimism. Our brains release PEA when we become sexually aroused and the levels can peak during orgasm. When the brain is flooded with PEA, the neurotransmitter dopamine is blocked from being deactivated and dopamine levels rise. Elevated dopamine levels are associated with increased mental concentration and a positive attitude.
PEA is found in great natural abundance in Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) blue-green algae, a particular type of algae grown and harvested from the Klamath Lake in Oregon. This algae has been grown for consumption since the 1970's and is popular among health enthusiasts worldwide. This superfood can significantly elevate the presence of PEA in our brain, and keep those levels high, regardless of what is happening in our lives.

E3Live With BrainOn
The company E3Live http://www.e3live.com has made fresh-living liquid AFA algae available, as well as other unique AFA formulas and products. E3Live BrainOn is a proprietary extract of AFA that contains a significant concentration of PEA. Taken orally, PEA is known to readily cross the blood-brain barrier and be immediately available to the brain. This formula is available in crystal flakes for adding to juice, water or smoothies.
