Green smoothies really are good for you! This short video (see next page) gives convincing answers to the few critics who have raised questions…
Just the other day I was talking to a friend about smoothies, and their response was “surely green smoothies are not good for you because…blending breaks down the fiber too much”? And again “… because the high fruit content gives you a blood sugar spike”?
You’ve probably heard objections like these too? And when well-respected nutrition scientists raise these same questions, its worth taking their concerns seriously…
In this video by Robyn Openshaw (GreenSmoothieGirl.com) she thoroughly addresses these issues. Robyn claims >95% people who adopt a green smoothie daily habit see a noticeable improvement in their health and/or quality of life, and report the top health benefits of green smoothies as better digestion, weight loss, and energy gain.
In the video Robyn puts the experts’ (and my friend’s) questions into perspective and outlines simple recipe principles (see 3rd page below) which completely eliminate the concerns raised.

Robyn’s Smoothie Recipe Principles:
Smoothies should be made up with approximately these proportions:
1/3 water e.g. if you put 3 cups into blender
1/3 greens…you should blend greens until the liquified volume = 6 cups
– that will take a lot of greens – about 0.75lb
1/3 fruit – another 3 cups of blended fruit
For diabetics, concerned about sugar content – use lower-sugar fruit e.g. apples, berries; use a lot of lemon juice (very low sugar)
The greens slow down the impact of the fruit on your blood sugar
Green Smoothie Strategy – sustainable practice that most people will actually do as a step towards a healthier diet. “A 9.5 on a scale of 1-10 for nutrition habits”
Smoothies are not a replacement for salads & veg, but a quick & easily digestible addition to the “standard American diet”!
