While reading the introduction I immediately related to the author when she explained that before getting into green smoothies her first impression was that they would be awful and gross. But whether you've never tried them or are a daily green smoothie drinker, I think we all know in our heart of hearts that they've got above average nutritional value.The author explains many of the benefits reported by green smoothie drinkers such as clearer skin, intestinal regularity, weight loss, fewer cravings for junk food and increased energy levels. She also explains how making green smoothie drinking a habit can eliminate the "caffeine hangover", make us feel fuller with less calories and why feeding the body high levels of minerals and vitamins could diminish cravings for sweets.She supplies a list of her favorite smoothie ingredients which should come in pretty handy as a grocery list for those who want to get started with this lifestyle change. You'll also learn why she says fresh and raw ingredients are better than canned and processed and why you might want to keep some frozen ingredients on hand.If I'm not mistaken, there are 39 smoothie recipes included. Surely anyone serious about making green smoothie drinking a habit, should be able to find at least a few that they can enjoy. If that's you, buy this book.
