No#1 Health Tip: The Green Smoothie!


One of the best ways ever to get your greens into you is blending them into a Green Smoothie!

Not only are you getting a potent mineral rich complete food to nourish your system, you will very quickly, after starting your green smoothie intake, feel less tired, more alert and focused,
your eyesight gets better, your energy levels increase and you begin to fit more excersise into your life and your overtaxed system has a chance to begin healing itself!

Humans cannot survive with out green leaves and green foods. Chlorophyll is the basis of every sugar that we know. Eating and drinking greens should be classsed as a health priority like pure water, pure air and sunshine is! That's why I feel it is important to tell you about it!

180 years ago when the industrial age began, and people stopped consuming greens and turned to convenience foods. The health of the industrialised, civilised population has most definately declined since our nutritional intake has suffered! That is 6 generations of bad nutritional encoding to combat folks!

If we dont eat enough greens, we cannot produce enough stomach acid, which means we cannot absorb nutrients and digest foods properly. This leads to deficency in our bodies. Deficiency creates imbalance in the body. Hormonal, emotional, brain chem suffers etc. Then we become more susceptable to disease.

The good news is we can very quickly heal ourselves through drinking nutritionally rich organic greens. They not only give vital protiens, vitamins, minerals and iron but they also, when blended act as a broom, cleaning out the intestinal tract of toxins.

Getting them down.

Blending your greens in fruit and water will not oxidize your green foods, it will also be sweet and delicious . You'll find you become really into the taste of green smoothies, they are so fresh, tasty and thick and a really good meal!

Rotate the greens you are using, or mix your greens up! eg. kale & parsley. It can be your supplement, your superfood and is in a perfectly digestable form when blended. Potent nourishment comes in the form of the green smoothie!

So what goes into one?

You have a wide variety of greens to choose from and practically endless variety or combinations of fruits to add together to make a different flavour every day!

Greens and Leaves: Kale, Collard Greens, Mustard Greens, Wild Dandilion and other wild herbs, Cilantro, Parsley, Basil, Mint, Lettuce, Sprouts, Spinach, Bok Choy, Pak Choy, Beetgreens, Aloe Vera, Wheatgrass, Barleygrass, Dulse & seagreens and more! (the list is endless!)

Suggested fruits: Bananas, Mangos, Fresh or frozen organic berries, Oranges, Papaya, Pineapple

A good amount of smoothie to drink daily is about 1 to 2 litres.

In your blender place:

1-2 cups of greens
as much friut as you need (I place one banana, berries and mango)
Pure water

And blend until smooth.

EAT in joy! (Don't forget to chew every sip of your smoothie, it lets your stomach know there is food coming and it also converts complex sugars to simple sugars, you'll know when to swallow the smoothie will taste warm and sweet, thats a good part of you digestion done!)

To your health!
