Nora’s Naturals elixirs are made of hydrating botanicals created to increase metabolism to naturally burn, calm the nervous system to adapt to stress, and speed cellular turnover to influence the aging process. The portable powders can be enjoyed on the go, as well as integrated into a cafe/restaurant experience.

The Fat Burner

Pineapple extract contains digestive enzymes to support gut health and aid in fat burning. Guarana, a plant native to the Amazon rainforest, contains natural caffeine that can raise metabolic rate and deliver sustained energy.

The Stress Reliever

Hibiscus flower contains flavonoids that support mood and deliver calming effects to the nervous system. Ashwagandha, an evergreen shrub, helps balance the body's production of the stress hormone cortisol.

The Beauty Booster

Biotin, a powerful B vitamin, promotes hair growth and skin elasticity. Raspberry ketones and blueberry extract support cellular repair for glowing complexion, paired with pomegranate powder rich in vitamin C.

Nora's Naturals Recipes

These smoothie recipes swap out the standard processed and packaged foods that are full of unnecessary sugar, without sacrificing taste. When we eat too much sugar, the body produces more and more insulin to move it out of the bloodstream. When there is too much insulin, it has nowhere to go because the cells can’t use it fast enough. This leads to insulin resistance, causing rapid weight gain, chronic disease and metabolic syndrome. By cutting out excess sugar in your daily diet, your body can better balance insulin levels and in turn, protect the brain.

The Energy Elixir  

Star Ingredient: Strawberries 

Why: These fruits are loaded with vitamin C, which helps lower inflammation and boost the immune system. Vitamin C helps to prevent free radicals from harming the body. When the immune system is suppressed from stress or over-activity, it creates an inflammatory environment in the body. Vitamin C helps to prevent that from happening. 

• 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries 

• 1 cup almond or coconut milk

• 1 tablespoon flaxseed 

• 1 teaspoon honey

• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract 

• 3 ice cubes

The Performance Pickup 

Star Ingredient: Walnuts 

Why:  Walnuts are high in omega 3 fatty acids, which protect the brain and improve cognitive health. Their high levels of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals also improve mental alertness. The properties of walnuts also protect against inflammation, which can affect the brain. 

• 1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries

• 1/2 cup frozen raspberries

• 1/4 cup raw walnuts 

• 1 scoop plant based protein powder 

• 1 cup almond or coconut milk 

• 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
