If you combine the ingredients I blend into my smoothies with the ingredients in my salad…

I cover every one of my G-BOMBS every day!

Two things I’d like to emphasize from the video.

“The salad is the main course” is Dr. Fuhrman’s catch phrase. He’s saying that you can have just a giant salad as the whole meal. I often do. I think I put 2 pounds of lettuce and veggies in it. As you can imagine, it fills me up. If you don’t eat salad often today, start with a regular size salad with your meals.

Regular salad dressing adds an unfortunate amount of empty calories to an otherwise great meal. One tablespoon of oil has 120 calories. Most commercial salad dressings have sugar too. And some have dairy. Not to mention all those industrial chemicals that we can’t even pronounce. Instead, get Dr. Fuhurman’s dressings or make your own, with nuts and seeds instead of oil.

It’s not McDonalds vs. crock pot.  It’s how quickly your body digests the food… and how quickly those calories enter your bloodstream.

In the video, I tell the story of what happens when you eat a high carbohydrate meal. Many commonly eaten foods break down pretty quickly into glucose. And this glucose enters the bloodstream all at once. The body reacts by releasing insulin to get the excess glucose out of the bloodstream. Do you know where it stores it… in fat cells.

In the Nutritarian diet you mostly avoid high carb foods and instead eat: beans, greens, nuts & seeds, and vegetables. These digest slower and have less glucose in them to begin with. So, what happens in your bloodstream when you don’t have a huge sugar dump all at once? Nothing. The moderate amount of glucose floats around until you burn it. And you don’t feel hungry, either.

Making a smoothie is easy. You throw food into a blender and turn it on.

But…

In this video I’ll go over the ingredients I use to make a really healthy Nutritarian smoothie.

Please watch the video for the details, but here are the eight things I put in my smoothie:

  • Greens and berries/fruit (plus something to sweeten it)
  • Seeds and Superfood powder
  • Nuts and Beans
  • Omega 3s and water.

I cover four of the six G-BOMBS and get the rest in a salad at lunch or dinner.
