I found "Green for Life" an excellent source of information. The cost of the book is under priced in my opinion. Victoria did a lot of research talking to Jane Goodall, did a research study on her own w/ a doctor, she gives other websites for helpful information on how to live better lifestyle. (That was refreshing by the way, most other books I have read they gave links but only so they can make extra money. Victoria is not about that in my opinion, she is about helping people)
Her recipes, and studies about green smoothies are excellent. She only gives a 10-12 recipes, but still you can find so many more out there on the net. Plus of course you can try it on your own and experiment. She gives all the information you will need to branch out on your own.
I work as a vitamin consultant and every customer I talk to I recommend her book. We are taught to eat our meat, potatoes and breads all our life. It is nice to see that we can have an alternative to a better life style.
I have a personal trainer. She inspired me to read this book. She eats all RAW food and looks incredible. She is only 30 but looks like she is in her early 20's. She recently did a fat test. The scale showed her metabolic age to be 13.
I have been on Victoria's plan for 3 weeks. I have lost 8 pounds, my skin is better and I have more energy. I am not totally raw though so perhaps when I make the complete transfer I will do even better.
Here is another recipe for you: In a blender: 1 cup of ice. 1 cup of Ionized (or just bottle) water, 1 apple cored, 2 peeled lemons, 1 half dollar size of peeled Ginger Root, 3-5 bunches of Spinach Leaves, Sprinkle 3-5 shakes of Stevia on top (natural sweetner) add 1 more cup of Water. Blend. Yum. It's the best! In the glass for more punch stir in a 2-3 shakes of Cayenne Pepper and for even more health add some Chia seeds. Wow what a Smoothie!
