The fiber in smoothies, especially green smoothies, has a cleansing effect on the colon. Smoothies are more filling than juices and more satisfying for regular, long-term use. Sugar is absorbed slower because of the fiber. Smoothies let you to enjoy fruit without the inevitable sugar spike you could get from some juices. The fruit in a smoothies will be like eating whole fruits. For most people, however, I recommend avoiding too much fruit entirely because we all suffer from improper sugar digestion to some degree after decades of eating processed foods.
Store-bought smoothies are designed more for their profit than your health. These smoothies are usually made with the cheapest, most commercial ingredients like frozen fruit, sugary juices and liquors for taste. It is rare to find a juice bar that will pay a few cents extra to buy organic ingredients, so if they didn’t thoroughly wash everything then you could be getting pesticide and chemical residues in your smoothies, too – far from the health-builder you were looking for! Blenders are easy to clean. Most of the time I clean my blender just by running it under hot tap water. I sometimes add a bit of water and dish soap to the blender and push the Pulse button for a few seconds. Because blenders are so much easier to use and clean blenders are often the first choice of investments when starting out on raw food. Remember, the easier it is the more you are likely to actually do it. When you start with a blender you give yourself the best shot at acclimating yourself toi a raw food lifestyle suceesfully.

Smoothies are a great tasting treat for the whole family – especially kids.

You can easily mix and match flavors to please the taste buds of anyone in your family, from a favorite fruit to a dash of cacao powder.

You can add supplements and super foods to your smoothies. A spoonful of hemp protein powder or spirulina adds a ton of dense nutrition to your smoothies. You probably wouldn’t add supplements to a glass of juice. rawfoodlife
