Healthy Organic Smoothie for Kids- What is Daily Sunshine?
As a mom and a pediatric nurse, want to hear something that freaks me out!? Today, about one in five school-aged children (ages 6–19) has obesity. The obesity rates in children has TRIPLED since the 70’s. And our children are developing more preventable diseases now than ever before. Their activity levels have declined and their obesity rates have increased. (Read the latest CDC data HERE) And a big majority of that is due to nutrition. We’re failing our children, momma’s and dad’s. And something has to change. Let’s be honest, as a momma, feeding my kids healthy options isn’t always the easiest. Some days we count veggie chips as a vegetable. Some days we dip fruit in chocolate to get them to eat it. But we keep trying, and aim to keep serving them fruits and veggies in the hopes that they’ll keep on those healthy habits.
If you’re that momma who spends loads of money at Smoothie King only to find that your kid is being loaded with sugar, or that you’re not really sure how to get them to drink something that has kale in it, you want a change. You’re tired of throwing money at things that don’t work and you just want something simple that’s not loaded with garbage, artificial anything, and is actually good for your child. Dare I say- organic and Non-GMO?! Especially if your child has common food intolerances- like dairy, soy, and gluten. You can imagine my excitement with discovering Daily Sunshine – a new organic, Non-GMO, soy/dairy/gluten free- fruit and veggie smoothie for kids- that’s also pediatrician approved. Hello Mom Win!!!
So what is it?? Daily Sunshine is a super yummy 3-in-1 smoothie that was formulated
for kids’ nutritional needs. It’s so hard to get them to eat a balanced meal and this packs a punch. It’s a
whole-food-based approach and it is made with a fruit and vegetable blend, plant-based
protein, and healthy fats. The flavors- chocolate or strawberry banana are kid-friendly, and actually taste good, not like chalk or most “nutrition” shakes. It’s a 3-in-1 Smoothie for Picky Kids. And Pickier Parents!
WHY IS DAILY SUNSHINE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SMOOTHIES?
Most kids’ smoothies require trade-offs. They may have protein, but no veggies. Or fruit, but no healthy fats.
Daily Sunshine is a 3-in-1 balance of a fruit and vegetable blend, plant-based proteins, and healthy fats. It’s loaded with 10 grams of plant based protein- no lactose/whey for those littles who have dairy sensitivities. And 3x the daily value needed of calcium.

WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED IN DAILY SUNSHINE?

WHY WAS DAILY SUNSHINE CREATED?
Every parent knows that kids need well-rounded diets to helpthem grow up healthy. And every parent faces the daily battle of
trying to convince their kids to eat fruits and vegetables. After
similar food struggles with her own son, Isabelle Daikeler (co-formulator
of Shakeology®), decided she needed a better solution. So Isabelle created a whole-food-based smoothie focused on the
building blocks of good nutrition—a fruit and veggie blend, plant-based
protein, and healthy fats. Then she included other things
kids often don’t get enough of, like fiber and probiotics. And to
make sure kids would actually drink it, Daily Sunshine was tasted
over and over again by the pickiest critics—kids—until the flavor
was just right. The result is a healthy AND delicious smoothie that
kids love…and parents feel great about serving. My girls are in heaven. Their words— “It tastes like bubblegum” in regard to the strawberry-banana, and the chocolate is my absolute fav! Yes, grown-ups can drink it too.
WHY YOUR FAMILY NEEDS DAILY SUNSHINE
Many families struggle with nutrition, especially around snack time
when it’s so easy to grab a bag of chips or cookies. Even snacks that
claim to be healthy really aren’t when you read the nutrition labels.
Daily Sunshine is a great alternative to unhealthy snacks that also helps
kids meet their nutritional needs. And as a nurse I can say, it’s proudly recommended by 4 out of 5 pediatricians.
