Seriously speaking, I was a bit cynical when I first picked up Stephen William's Smoothies: Fabulous Nutrition in his healthy living series. My first instinct was "come on, how prosaic can you get? Writing a book on smoothies? Why, every health conscious person knows that fresh fruit and vegetable juices are the best way through which they can get their system going again in a healthy fashion."Nevertheless, I picked up the book, and well, I am glad I did that. I did not know that there were so many ways in which I could make fabulous smoothies. All I had to do was going to my kitchen and pick up a lot of fresh fruit, slice them and dice them and toss them into my food processor. Press the button and there you are, a delicious, fabulous, and healthy smoothie for my delectation.Stephen William's has finally managed to get one idea going - get back to nature. If you want to be healthy, following a healthy natural diet, without overly burdening your body with such dangerous matter like preservatives and chemical products, making up your food, try these delicious smoothie nutritious and natural recipes.I am giving him a four-star, because I found his enthusiastic clichés a too overwhelming. Yes, we know that natural fruit and vegetables are excellent for beauty and health. They should be an integral part of our daily diet. But writing whole paragraphs of these clichés are just a wee bit too much. Nevertheless, he made up with his smoothie recipes, which let us face it, are tasty and nutritious.And also, remember that there is absolutely no substitute for hard exercise supported by a healthy diet to keep you fit, fine and healthy. So if you imagine that you can keep healthy, just by drinking smoothies while not doing any sort of exercise to get your metabolism working, well, that is where I differ from Stephen Williams. He lost one star because of this particular idea.Also, for all those health-conscious people who are not experimental in their food combinations, combinations of supposedly oddly assorted vegetables may come as a surprise. Nevertheless, just try it out. Nothing ventured nothing win. You are definitely not going to regret investing your hard-earned money in this particular book - smoothies - fabulous nutrition. This one is a keeper!
