This is from Nancy Campbell from Above Rubies magazine. The chlorophyll in greens combats tumor growth; it works on the adrenal glands, purifies the lymph nodes, unclogs the arteries and enriches the blood. It protects against radiation. Chlorophyll is only one of the many benefits of greens. It also provides a large gamut of vitamins and minerals, phyto-nutrients and colon cleansing cellulose. It is blended so smoothly that even babies starting solids and toddlers who can't chew up greens can swallow these power foods and not gag. The cellulose is broken down and the greens are so easily digested that they begin to assimilate even while still in their mouth. You might need to play with the greens amount to get the right amount of sweetness. I added more fruit to cut the greens taste and would use only milk or kefir, instead of water next time. Try strawberry, raspberry, peach etc. I adjusted it just a bit. Ingredients:
1 ripe banana |
2 cups filtered water or 2 cups milk or 2 cups kefir |
1 tablespoon honey (raw, if you have it) |
1 apple, cored and peeled |
1 cup whole coconut milk (optional, i like the flavor of coconut in a smoothie) |
2 tablespoons flax seed oil (optional) or 2 tablespoons coconut oil (optional) or 2 tablespoons flax seed meal (optional) |
2 tablespoons oat bran or 2 tablespoons wheat germ |
greens |
Directions:
1. Add all ingredients, except greens to a blender.
2. Stuff the rest of the blender with greens - about three to five good handfuls - they shrink when blended! Lettuce, romaine, spinach, chard, kale, collards, parsley, or whatever you have in the fridge or garden.
3. Blend until smooth. You could use more fruit than greens and slowly add more greens as you get used to them.
