Synopsis:
“From March blossoms to the October harvest and back again, this one-of-a-kind book guides you through every week of the year with the freshest fruit and vegetable choices for your green smoothies. A daily diet rich in greens can prevent obesity, diabetes, heart disease and even some types of cancer, but most people don’t eat anywhere near the recommended amount of these foods. On the other hand, those who make green smoothies part of a healthy lifestyle are able to cut calories, increase energy and transform their physical and mental health.”
