review 1: This book gives the how and the why to add green smoothies to your diet. It is the first step to incorporating more whole and raw food into what you are eating. I love how she puts it on a level anyone can do and includes her own story about why she started making green smoothies.I attended a seminar by GreenSmoothieGirl almost three months ago and have been making green smoothies a little longer than that. I had recognized the need for more vegetables in my family's diet, but didn't have any idea how to do that. I felt we ate pretty healthy, but after attending her class, I have changed my views a bit. I bought a Blendtec, since the smoothies I made with my old blender had to be eaten with a spoon. I am loving it!I don't do everything she suggests and have not done ... moreher 12 Steps to Whole Foods, but I have tried to incorporate more whole foods into my family's diet. I recognize that the Standard American Diet is killing us all. So much meat, processed food, and sweeteners such as high fructose corn syrup cannot be good for us. I believe that God has given us what we need to take care of our bodies, but most of us ignore the whole foods and reach for the Twinkie.
review 2: Like "Green for Life", the writing in this book can get quite opinionated and unusual to mainstream society, but I had experienced the benefits of having green smoothies on a daily basis for awhile before reading it. Consequently, it was an easy read. I thought Openshaw was quite inspiring when relating her family background and her current gardening efforts. I made several helpful adjustments to my smoothie-making routine, especially in my attempts to be more economical about it. The recipes in this book were a big turnoff for me, though, because they are all quite complicated. less
