How to Make the Best Raw Green Smoothie Possible
4 Valuable Tips
- Never blend anything except
(a) fruits,
(b) green leafy vegetables,
(c) water
(no vegetables that contain starch, like root vegetables, potatoes,broccoli, beets, cabbage etc.)
Note: tomatoes, cucumbers & avocados count as fruits! - Keep it as simple as possible (don't take too many ingredients, they will spoil the good taste of the smoothie.
- Start with mixing smoothies that contain more fruits than vegetables (about 60% fruits vs. 40% leafy vegetables) until your body gets used to the taste of the greens.
- Try to rotate the vegetables in your green smoothie (this will ensure that you won't get unhealthy proportions of alkaloids).

- Awesome stuff. I just spent a week with the Boutenko family eating nothing but green smoothies and fruit all week long. An amazing week that I have created a lens about called The Joy For Life Retreat.
