Re: Green Smoothies!//blender Question

[Guest guest]

Hi all of you happy smoothies makers :)I have a question for you. I see that blender is the main tool you use for smoothies and therefore all the greens are mashed with something else.And all the fiber is still present ( hard for some of us to digest). Is it possible to juice greens and combine them with fruit, or yogurt etc. whatever is tolerable? And if so is it hard to juice leafy greens? I've never done it and think that would be the way to start tolerate greens.ThanksYanaUC, SCD since March 2008

I have -- and use -- an Omega 8002 juicer. I think the current model is

the 8005.

Yes, it's possible to juice the greens -- just be sure to dilute the

juice significantly when starting.
