Are some greens better than others?
The most important point to remember is that eating any vegetable is better than eating none. The problem today is that most people are not even getting enough veggies in their diet... and French fries or mashed potatoes are NOT counted.
First and foremost, you need to get sufficient vegetables in your diet. If you do not like eating vegetables, you can make green smoothies. They are just as beneficial.
There is no need to worry if some greens are better than others because your goal will be to rotate the greens that you use in your smoothie. Some people make the exact same smoothie every single time and miss out on the benefits that they can get from the other vegetables.
Choose organic vegetables whenever you can. The hard truth is that most of our foods contain toxins from insecticides, fertilizers,
etc. By rotating your greens, you will be preventing a toxin build- up from any one vegetable.
You should research what different green smoothie recipes there are. You can find many books in your library or at Amazon.com that contain many tasty and delicious green smoothie recipes.
These guides contain recipes created by nutrionists and health experts who have factored daily nutrient requirements, vegetable combinations, taste, etc. when concocting these recipes. You are in safe hands by following their recipes. The best way to stick with a habit is to like doing it.
Since the recipes will usually be tasty, you’ll be more likely to stick to drinking smoothies instead of reaching for the sodas.
As long as you make smoothies from the vegetable list given above, or from a good recipe book, you will do just fine. This is not rocket science. It’s just smoothies. Blend them and drink
them. You will look and feel like a brand new you. It’s that simple.
