  • Freeze and enjoy!

The Good Inside

Decadent and dark, cocoa powder may boost endorphins, the feel-good factor for mood. Plus it is heart-healthy and supports healthy blood pressure.

Banana adds a smooth creamy texture, a hint of sweetness, and a bump of potassium to replenish minerals. Coconut is tasty and comes with MCTs, medium-chain triglycerides that help promote fat loss, especially around the belly area.

Deliciously sweet dates are full of fiber to aid digestion, deliver natural vitamin A and contain over a dozen minerals. Raw honey is a superfood sweetener. It’s a potent mix of fructose, enzymes, vitamins, minerals and amino acids that acts as an antioxidant.

A scoop of Super Green Juice powder provides 44 organic superfoods full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, probiotics, and plant protein.

Each Chocolate Banana Popsicle satisfies your sweet tooth while nourishing your body with healthy superfoods!
