Trust me when I say it will be three minutes well spent if you watch this video:
Admittedly, a song about green smoothies patterned after an ABBA song may not be your thing, but it's catchy, no?
The woman in the video is Victoria Boutenko, an author who has written about the health benefits of green smoothies. She is also a big Vitamix fan, and I've worked with her awesome son Sergei on a few smoothie-related projects during my time at Vitamix.
Sergei, by the way, put out his own green smoothie rap ("Green Smoothie Hustla"...really) a couple of years after his mother's chart-busting ditty.
I drink a green smoothie just about every day. It's a simple recipe: water, some sort of frozen fruit (I've been alternating between a mango/pineapple mix and berries), and some leafy greens, and then blend that puppy up.
Those leafy greens for me usually include some combination of kale, spinach, chard, collard greens, and whatever else I can get my hands on.
The flavor is excellent and the health benefits vast.
I guess what I'm saying is that, if you're not already a smoothie person, you might consider becoming one. It will make your doctor very happy.
Or at least keep singing that smoothie song. I feel like the world's a better place with that tune on our collective lips.
