Green Smoothies are a locally produced by Sky Hunt. A Brisbane mum of two primary school age children, Sky spent 25 years as a personal trainer and was a competitive Bodybuilder and a University Judo Player. This meant she needed to understand what nutrition was required to perform at an elite level.
After studying the nutritional requirements needed for the body, Sky has developed her Green Smoothies which she freezes in order to capture the nutrition.
“Being a daily intake, anything less than organic will build up like residue in the body, so it is extremely important that my product is organic”, says Sky Hunt.
All Green Smoothies are blended not juiced, keeping in essential nutrients and fibre, before being frozen in recyclable pods. Sky only uses local seasonal organic produce in her Green Smoothies so the ingredients will vary from season to season.
