After being diagnosed with IC (interstitial cystitis), finding something to eat that I enjoy is becoming quite an ordeal. Everyone says, “just adjust your recipes”, but that can be easier said than done. Hence, I shall post recipes that are IC friendly, that have been adapted or have been found online to share with others. I hope you like the recipes as much as I do. :)

Sweet Cinnamon Smoothie
Cinnamon is one of the most popular and favorite spice in the world. It’s commonly used in flavoring desserts, snacks, pastries an other food. It’s unique taste and scent isn’t the only reason why you should love it. Cinnamon is a great way to maintain and control blood sugar level, energy and mood. It’s also known to contain anti-bacterial compounds which helps prevent bacterial disease. This Cinnamon Nutribullet recipe is smooth and sweet without being too crazy high in calories, although it can be made higher for people seeking more calories by adding more maple syrup or some protein powder. Adding a garnish of nuts also can add protein.
A sweet, refreshing smoothie from allnutribulletrecipes.com.
