Green smoothies are healthy but why?
A lot is written about green smoothies. The story goes that they would work preventively against almost all ailments and diseases that occur in our western society. I think it's not so much the smoothie that helps prevent ailments and diseases, but the healthy ingredients that you make them from. Namely the vegetables. Vegetables have a preventive effect on many diseases and help us stay vital and healthy. Whether you cook, steam, bake, chop, or mash the vegetable and use it in a green smoothie.
The vitamins and minerals from the vegetables are the benefactors. The advantage of a green smoothie is the time. You normally eat your vegetables in the evening. This gives you one vegetable moment per day. By drinking a green smoothie you can get an extra portion of vitamins and minerals in the morning or in the afternoon. The supply of vitamins and minerals is therefore larger and better distributed throughout the day. This has a positive effect on health and works preventively against many diseases.
Make a green smoothie
Making a green smoothie is simple. You do need a blender for this. And preferably one with a powerful engine and a glass jug. The vegetables that you process in a green smoothie recipe can be difficult to grind. A blender with a powerful motor is therefore a must. If you are going to make a green smoothie it is best to first put the liquid yogurt, milk, almond milk, soy milk, water etc. into the jug. Then you add the vegetables and fruit of the green smoothie recipe. This way you know for sure that everything is ground well and that no residues are left under the knife.
Which vegetables for a green smoothie
In principle, you can use any vegetable that you can eat raw in a green smoothie. It is more convenient to follow a recipe for green smoothies. Then you know for sure that you can drink the result. We use a lot of avocado, kale, endive, spinach and ginger. But there are many more options to come up with. We tried several times to make a green smoothie with broccoli, but unfortunately ... we didn't like it. In addition to vegetables, we often use banana. Banana is sweet and obscures the sometimes less tasty taste of raw vegetables.
