Equipment
- immersion blender
- Mason jar (or a blender)
Ingredients
Becky's Original Recipe:
- 12 pcs egg yolks (pastured)
- 1/2 cup grass fed butter
- 1 cup kefir (or cultured cream)
- 1 handful berries (or 2-3 tbsp lime juice)
- 1 tspn mineral salt
My Modified Recipe:
- 4-6 pcs egg yolks (pastured - see note below)
- 3/4 cup milk kefir
- 1-2 tbsp raw honey (to taste)
- 1 tbsp sea salt (or rock salt)
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients together with an immersion blender in a mason jar (or in a blender).OPTIONAL: Salt the rim of a mason jar by getting the rim wet, then spinning it upside down on a plate of salt.
- Carefully pour the shake into the salted jar.
- Drink immediately.
Notes
- Egg yolks can cause detox/die-off reaction. It can be easier to start with a small amount and work up to 12 yolks a day. I personally started at 4 yolks/ adrenal shake.
- Per Dr. McBride, it is important to eat animal fats and cholesterol at every meal. I find making this drink 2x/day is a good balance for me personally.
- For a dairy free option, substitute 1 cup of meat stock and omit the honey. Blend the stock and egg yolks together and enjoy as a warm beverage.
- Kefir cream is very nourishing. If you can tolerate kefir cream over milk kefir, feel free to substitute. I prefer to eat kefir cream in our probiotic pumpkin pie smoothies.
- This modified recipe omits the lime juice and salt. I personally do not enjoy the taste this way, but I DO love salt on the rim of my mason jar! If we dread the taste of something, it is harder to be consistent in consuming it regularly. Please see the additional natural remedies for adrenal fatigue below regarding how to consume extra salt.
