Dear Friends,

Greens are the most nutritious source of food on Earth and that is why all creatures on our planet consume some form of greens. Even polar bears eat moss, tigers and lions munch on grass, and wales consume algae. Greens have been an essential part of the human diet since the beginning of time, but during the last two centuries, people in western countries have almost completely stopped eating them.

Green smoothies help us to catch up with consuming enough greens. Here is my favorite recipe from last week.

Avo Parsley Green Smoothie


  1 bunch of fresh parsley
  2 peeled kiwis
  1 apple
  1/2 small ripe avocado
  2 cups water

Yields 2 quarts
