I have blender issues and I know that mine would never be able to handle that recipe. What was the blender that she recommended in the video, I could not catch it?

I do fresh spinich, frozen fruit of all kinds, a fresh banana, carrots, and that green Odwalla blend, goji berries and a chunck of fresh ginger..so yummy. My two year old has one almost each day! I've lost 4% body fat and about 9 inches since I've started adding these in with my work outs....wow!! I’ve been doing these for about a year now.

But I will save some for the next day if I made to much...I am sure it still has some good nutrition left. ;) Yes, they do lose nutrtinal value so it is best to drink within a few hours.

I do have a question - can you store what you make for a day or two, or do you have to consume what you make immediately or within a few hours? Does the smoothie lose nutritional value if it sits?

This is the good sugar. I have two smoothies a day and it totally fills me up and really not much sugar in the scheme of things. Nikki,

Maybe someone has an answer? If you consume a lot of green smoothies, isn't the sugar intake very high since they have a lot of fruit in them. I also wondered if there was a reason none of the smoothie recipes I came across used non-fat yogurt? Just Curious!
