I’ve been busy making the smoothies as well. I’ve been adding a tbsp of coconut oil, a tsp of cinnamon and I add the smoothie to my cereal bowl which I’ve added 2 tbsp. ground flax seeds and 2 tbsp hemp hearts. Tastes great!!.

That sounds like a great smoothie! I’m know garlic is great for your health but I just can’t stand the taste or the effect of raw garlic. You are lucky!

Randy we have been making smoothie for a few years, our blender broke down so we only use our MAGIC BULLET.To the spinach we add six in. piece of celery, some cucumber .We even add a piece of garlc if we want to give a different flavor

I also eat a lot of raw broccoli, but my wife steams or adds the brocolli to the smoothie.

Alpha, I know what you are referring to; we have heard that apples seeds contain arsenic. They do not contain arsenic but apple seeds ontain cyanide. Apprently grinding apples and pressing them doesn’t release enough cyanide to be a problem nor does cooking them.

“About the only way you can actually ruin into a problem with the toxicity of apple seeds is if you save the seeds from about a bushel of apples and eat them all at once.” Richard E. Barrans Jr., Ph.D. Assistant Director PG Research Foundation, Darien, Illinois

So what do I do….I do not put the seeds in as when I eat an apple I never feel like eating the seeds so why would I put them in my smoothie. I prefer to not get any extra cyanide if I can.

That looks great! When will part 2 be coming out ? I have been trying to have a green smoothie at least once a day , what an energy difference ! I saw a blender demo at a trade fair, they threw in the seeds of the apples I was always told that this was NOT a healthy thing to do, what do you suggest please? Alpha
