The Mother of All Benefits: The Mother Earth Bowl

​
Drop by The Bodhi and jump into one of our signature bowls, The Mother Earth.  

The Mother Earth  is a bowl that boasts a variety of flavors- ranging from earthy to fresh- to fulfill the diversity of your palate, and your body's needs! Every ingredient in this bowl showcases an extensive number of health benefits that support the health & function of your body!

How?
  • HEART HEALTH 
    • Every ingredient in the Mother Earth has been shown to support the heart's health, in ways like lowering blood pressure, maintaining the integrity of blood vessels, lowering cholesterol. 
  • MUSCLE FUNCTION & MUSCLE RECOVERY 
    • Ingredients, like the quinoa, onion, and sweet potato, aid in muscle function, like daily walks, exercises, and more! These same ingredients also contain nutrients that help reduce inflammation, which helps in muscle recovery. 
  • REGULATING BLOOD SUGAR 
    • Every ingredient in this bowl contains a relatively low glycemic index, and glycemix load, which means that it helps keep your blood sugar from spiking (in comparison to it's response from when you eat white bread or drink alcohol). Not only that, each ingredient is relatively high in fiber, which also aid in the regulation of blood sugar. 
  • IMMUNE SUPPORT 
    • 100% of the ingredients in this bowl contain some form of antioxidants, which is shown to help the body fight damage (as a result of things like unhealthy food, the environment, illness, toxins, etc), help repair cell damage, AND aid in making the body's defense stronger!
  • ​​BRAIN FUNCTION​ 
    • ​Studies have demonstrated that nearly every ingredient in this bowl aid the brain's function in some way. Whether it's with memory, getting blood to the brain, improving the quality and quantity of decisions in a given time, or just living day to day, this bowl is for you! 

1 bowl. So much BodhiFuel Power.
