I purchased the Green Smoothie Girl ebook recently and just ordered a Vitamix. Does anybody do Green smoothies? I'm sold on the idea.

We've done smoothies with fruit every morning for several years and I like the idea of using fresh, raw veggies to make a smoothie to get more nutrition.

I recently decided to start making green smoothies as well and, after much research, I decided on the Vitamix too. I'm still waiting for it to arrive but I've started blogging about green smoothies and baby boomers and will report whether or not I think they are a benefit to healthy aging.

Here's my first article on green smoothies

After reading about the benefits of them, I think they will be a great benefit to healthy aging.

I just got my Vitamix this past week and we've started drinking green smoothies. They are really delicious and I feel good knowing I'm giving my family lots of veggies like spinach, kale, sprouts and other whole foods.

They are very easy to do.

Green drinks are very powerful detoxifiers. I have been doing them for quite a while. Some products don't taste very good but you can doctor them. I use Jarrow whey,stevia, yogurt and juice.

I have seen some serious ailments disappear with their regular use. My favorite brand is Greens 8000 and Berry Greens 8000 and iherb gives a good price.

I've been drinking green smoothies for about a year and love them. I regularly use kale, spinach, Swiss Chard and other greens that I don't often cook.

I agree that you can improve the taste with stevia, yogurt and a little fruit thrown in.

You're right Arrow, you can easily sweeten a green smoothie. I use Stevia too or add a little fruit.

I'm loading up on the greens and I feel better every day.

I do green smoothies with spinach,marigold, parsley,lettuce+ fruits. It is great to add some peppermint, sage or other herb for a better scent and taste.

That sounds delicious! I just throw in anything I have in the frig on a given day but peppermint sounds good. I have a nice peppermint plant in a pot in my back yard too.

One of my favorites is homemade peppermint iced tea, 1/2 or whole banana, 2 big handfuls of dark leafy greens, 1-2 tbsp organic vanilla yogurt to make it thicker and whatever fat I have available (chia seeds, flaxseed oil or nut butter).

If I'm drinking post workout I add organic whey protein powder. I started doing this 2 summers ago and I love it. It's easier to eat more greens daily this way.

Green smoothies or health smoothies overall are one of my passions. Some green super foods can taste quite bland at fist but once you get used to them you cant live without... I love waking up in the morning and having my shake. gives me loads of energy for the day. my favourite new addition is tahini. full of dairy free calcium and good oils for brain and skin.

One great thing about green smoothies is that you can change ingredients and add new ones as you discover them. I use chia seeds, maca and spirulina besides all sorts of veggies.
