The Myths Behind Green Smoothies | Are They Doing More Harm Than Good?

In this video I'm going to go over the myths behind green smoothies. We're told that green smoothies are packed full of nutrients, offering amazing health benefits, but did you know that not all green smoothies are created equal? Some store bought green smoothies, and even homemade green smoothies can be problematic to your health, and I'm here to tell you why! Stick around because I also go over how I make my super healthy Grocers Green Smoothie, packed full of amazing ingredients that will make even the fussiest of children take a sip!

All food will always have some negative. Make your own veg smoothie and you cant go wrong. For goodness sake its better for you than a burger 🌿🍔🤠👍🏻

I stick to only one fruit to avoid the sugar overload, but I go all the way with the greens: brussel sprouts, broccoli, Spanish, carrot, ginger(a piece of ginger block the veggie taste), chia seeds, flax seed, a banana or berries.

chia seeds must b soaked till it expands then add to any smoothy not directly.

I prefer coconut water over just water. Gives it better consistency.

I make my own from wild berries and loaded with organic vegetables: Kale, arugula, spinach, etc. With collegan, ground flaxseed, basil seeds, half a banana, vegan protein, powdered peanut butter, and lemon juice. Make your own EVERYTHING people!!! ❤❤

Also, using green tea as a base seems to give a nice energy boost for mornings.

I only drank smoothies for a month without any added artificial sugar or dairy , added all kind of vegetables to it beat carrot spinach lettuce . Worked out occasionally . And after a month I climbed up to 13000 ft in the Himalayas. Someone who couldn’t even climb 2 stairs without panting . Talk about life changing experience . Avoid grains gluten related foods, dairy, sugar processed foods, stress and bad sleeping habits . You wil feel more alive than you’ve ever felt

Glad to see my formulations of smoothies have been in the ballpark for health. Fruit 100 grams. Fiber 100 grams Fat 28 grams . I add a lot of powders like cacao, cinnamon, beetroot, taurine, Curcumin, flax seed. Thanks for the sensible smart green smoothie recipe . I’ll try it! Somebody just gave me a pile of kale! Hahah, I just reread my ingredients. Not 100 grams of fiber, 100 grams of legumes!

Cucumber or celery base is better than water for the structured water spinach carrots kale apple. Chia seeds (soak them first… overnight or 20. Mins water soak in sunlight). Easy

My recipe is water, plant based organic protein powder, golden flax, matcha green powder, cacao, fresh ginger, cuke, spinach, banana, frozen wild blueberries and mango😋

I avoid the dark greens like spinach, kale and chards. I used to have them in my smoothie everyday on weekdays for years and the oxolates caused an imbalance in my TSH levels. I dropped them and replaced it with romaine lettuce and the TSH levels came back within range.

You have to add either organic olive oil or coconut oil and a Lemmon juice along wit table full of apple cider vinegar. Do this to digest green.

I do add chia to a lot of my drinks but you can't let the drink sit very long because it gets too thick with the chia.

Natural sugar is needed in a complete diet, like pineapple, grapes, oranges etc. Added bleached white sugar is what you dont want to much of, those pre-prepped smoothies can usually have added sugar. So in the end your own blended smoothies are way better. ALSO make sure to eat a small healthy meal b4 ur smoothie as our stomach needs us to chew in order to properly digest.
