Introduction
You may be wondering what the difference is between regular smoothies and green
smoothies. The answer is not a whole lot, other than what makes up the green.
Green in this case stands for vegetables. When someone refers to a Green Smoothie
they are referring to a smoothie that contains at least one vegetable among the juicy fruits. Drinking a green smoothie
means you are receiving your vegetables and fruits and depending on the recipe, proteins too. The vegetables make the smoothies highly nutritious, especially when using green leafy vegetables (or even carrots, which are included in a few of the many recipes within this book.) The point of placing these vegetables within the guise of a smoothie is that the fruits overpower the taste of the vegetables. If a person does not like the flavor of vegetables, chances are they will never even taste them in a green smoothie, though the color of the smoothie will certainly show it.
A green smoothie will provide a vegetable in its most nutritious state, raw. Raw vegetables contain high levels of valuable nutrients that are often lost in the cooking process. When you consume a green smoothie, you are consuming a raw vegetable or two as well as the raw fruits to make this a powerful drink packed with high levels of beneficial nutrients. Making your own green smoothies ensures you know exactly what you are getting, whereas using a pre-packages smoothie mix, you may be getting ingredients you cannot even pronounce, much less even need.
The one thing you can count on with the green smoothie diet is in receiving the valuable nutrients your body needs. Because most of the food in the ingredients list is raw, you know you are gaining the most out of this diet. When we consume the wrong foods, fast foods, convenient foods, junk foods, our bodies are starved for these nutrients. If this goes on for too long we become sick because our immune systems are compromised. If we are not taking in the nutrients such as anti-oxidants then our body will wear out faster. Taking supplements is a good way to remedy this, but the body does not properly absorb all the nutrients even from pills. The best way to gain these valuable nutrients is to eat them in foods where they naturally occur. Just think, when you consume a green smoothie, you are doing better than you would if you were taking supplements.
Weight Loss with the Green Smoothie Diet
The truth is pretty solid in that vegetables, when eaten as a whole food, helps with weight loss. So by adding the vegetables to the recipes, we insure you receive your requirements for vegetables, plus vegetables provide fiber and help to keep the body feeling full so you will not want to reach for the junk foods. The combination of fruits to vegetables helps the body to digest the foods easier, by digesting the foods slower it helps them to move along the digestive tract easier and helps in the absorption of the vital nutrients. This is why the green smoothie diet is so successful in helping with weight loss.
