I find it hard to get all of my servings of fruits and vegetables in each day. I throw a banana, a glass of orange juice and some strawberries or other fruit into the blender. Thirty seconds later, I have a shake that has lots of servings of fruit. It's not always easy to work four to five servings of vegetables and three to four servings of fruit into your diet each day. It requires some culinary creativity.
Smoothies are a great idea.
Berries, mangoes, melon, even beets, make great additions to the basic mix. Unlike straight juice, where the fiber has been strained out, the fiber from all of the whole fruit pieces you add remains in the concoction.
