The Ultimate Morning Sickness Smoothie: Ingredients
What makes this THE ultimate morning sickness smoothie?
Rich in healthy fats, fiber and protein for blood sugar stability, it contains key nutrients to help keep the nausea at bay while providing you lasting energy to keep your spirits up and mind working throughout the day.
Let’s take a closer look at the ingredients:

Spinach
Spinach is a good source of Vitamin B6, a nutrient that helps with nausea during pregnancy. While you may not be able to tolerate a spinach salad during the first trimester, throwing a handful of spinach into a smoothie may help you keep it down!
Green Apple
A good source of fiber and a tart and refreshing taste, green apple is a great addition to this smoothie.
Avocado
Rich in healthy fats and fiber, add avocado to your smoothie to help stabilize your blood sugars. Which, in turn, can help lessen any nausea you may experience.
Flax Seeds
Flax seeds are not only a good source of healthy fats and fiber, they also contain magnesium. Adequate magnesium intake in pregnancy can help alleviate nausea.
Ginger
Ginger is well known for its ability to calm an upset stomach and reduce pregnancy nausea. Fresh ginger is a must-have ingredient for your morning sickness smoothie!

Orange Juice
For some, citrusy smells and flavors can help reduce feelings of nausea. If that’s the case for you, then orange juice is a great alternative to milk in your morning sickness smoothie. If citrus fruits upset your stomach, use 1 cup of water instead and leave out the orange juice altogether.
Lemon
Consuming or inhaling lemon can help relieve nausea during pregnancy. Add a couple of squirts of lemon juice into your smoothie to help soothe your stomach.
Collagen Peptides
Adding a source of protein in your morning sickness smoothie is key. Protein helps to stabilize your blood sugars.
What I love about using collagen peptides in this smoothie is that you cannot even notice they are in it! Most protein powders have a distinct taste, but collagen peptides like the brand I use here are tasteless and odorless.
For those mamas who cannot tolerate animal proteins during the first trimester, adding collagen peptides to your smoothie is a great place to start.
How to Make The Ultimate Morning Sickness Smoothie
Now that you have all of the ingredients, all you need to make this smoothie is a blender! (This is my all-time favorite single serving blender, it comes with a travel cup too. Who doesn’t love less dishes?!)

- Simply add all of the ingredients above, except for the collagen peptides, into the blender.
- Blend until smooth.
- Add in the collagen peptides, pulse 1-2 more times to mix it in.
- Then, enjoy!
