Drinking the Glowing Skin Smoothie is a great way to incorporate tremendous amounts of greens into your diet – far more than just eating your veggies. A serving of the GSS contains over 3 cups of dark leafy green vegetables, which is more than many people get in a week!
Greens have more valuable nutrients than any other food group on the planet. You might be surprised to learn that greens even have high-quality, easily-assimilated amino acids – enough to build the protein that supports the muscle mass of the mighty, greens-eating gorilla, which pound-for-pound is the strongest animal on earth! Blending helps make greens’ full spectrum of nutrition readily available to the body.
Nutrients are encased inside plant cells and getting their benefits requires these cells’ walls to be ruptured. Greens need to be worked down to a creamy consistency, but most people simply don’t chew that much! Blending addresses this problem, helping your body absorb the maximum amount of nutrition from your greens. This is the drink that I drink every day, and have all my clients drink to feel and look their best. I hope that it will become part of your daily life as well.
I generally recommend starting out consuming around 16 ounces of the Glowing Green Smoothie, and then working up to 24 ounces or more. A good blender is definitely recommended to make this smoothie, so that it’s smooth, silky, and delicious in only a few minutes of prep time and cleanup.
The advantage of making a big batch like this one is time and convenience. Unlike juice, the Glowing Skin Smoothie will keep in your refrigerator, as long as it’s covered, for about two and a half days. You can share it with your family, or have it yourself over that time period.
You can also freeze portion sizes of it in glass containers and thaw out the night before in a bind. Ongoing cleansing is a critical way to reach your highest potential of health and beauty. The Glowing Green Smoothie retains all of the fibre of the greens and fruit, rather than removing it. In nature, vegetables and fruit are found with both their fibre and juice intact, and we can’t improve on nature. Fibre is critical for ongoing cleansing by sweeping out toxins on a regular basis, helping to keep your digestive tract and body clean, and also keeping you fuller so that you tent to eat less heavier and/or acidic foods throughout the day.
