If you bought a high-performance blender to improve your health, you probably already know the basics: spinach, bananas, and protein powder. But if you are one of the many Singaporeans dealing with joint pain, high cholesterol, or inflammation, your smoothie is missing one critical ingredient. Today, we are sharing our secret recipe for the “Golden Shield” Smoothie. It tastes like a tropical dessert but acts like, utilizing a “super oil” that is currently many health awareness people started to come to know.
Why Your Smoothie Needs “Good Fats”
Many people make the mistake of making fruit-only smoothies. While tasty, these can spike your blood sugar.
To get the full benefit of vitamins A, D, E, and K (found in greens and fruits), you need to pair them with fat. Fat helps your body absorb these nutrients. But not just any fat—you need high-quality Omega-3s.
The Secret Ingredient: Sacha Inchi Oil
For this recipe, we don’t use fish oil (which ruins the taste) or olive oil (which is too heavy). We use Inchaway Sacha Inchi Oil.
Why Sacha Inchi?
• Highest Plant-Based Omega-3: It has significantly more Omega-3 than salmon, perfect for vegetarians.
• Neutral Taste: Unlike flaxseed oil, high-quality Sacha Inchi oil has a nutty, unobtrusive flavor that blends perfectly.
• Singapore Heat Resistant: It is stable and doesn’t go rancid easily in our tropical climate compared to other delicate oils.
Where to get it?
Not all oils are created equal. We exclusively use Inchaway brand Sacha Inchi Oil for its purity and absorption rate.

The Recipe: “The Tropical Omega Boost”
This smoothie is designed to lower inflammation and boost energy without the “sugar crash.”
Prep Time: 5 Mins
Serves: 1
Ingredients: • 1 Cup Fresh Pineapple (Cubed): Contains bromelain, a natural enzyme that fights inflammation. • 1/2 Green Apple: Adds pectin and sweetness. • 1 Thumb-sized piece of Turmeric (Kunyit): The king of anti-inflammatory roots. • 1 Pinch of Black Pepper: Crucial! It activates the turmeric absorption by 2000%. • 1 Sachet (or 1 tbsp) of Inchaway Sacha Inchi Oil: The star ingredient. • 1 Cup Coconut Water: Electrolytes for hydration in the humid Singapore weather. • Ice: As desired.
Instructions:
1. Liquids First: Pour the coconut water and the Inchaway Sacha Inchi Oil into the blender jar first. This prevents the oil from sticking to the sides.
2. Soft Fruits: Add the pineapple and apple.
3. Spices: Toss in the fresh turmeric and that crucial pinch of black pepper.
4. Blend: Start your blender on LOW to chop the ingredients, then quickly ramp up to HIGH.
5. Emulsify: Let it run on high for 45-60 seconds. A good high-speed blender (like a Vitamix or Blendtec) will emulsify the oil completely, turning the liquid into a creamy, golden latte consistency.
Why This Combination Works
The Pineapple fights the pain, the Turmeric fights the inflammation, and the Sacha Inchi Oil lubricates your joints and protects your heart vessels. It is the ultimate “maintenance drink” for the modern Singaporean lifestyle.
