Dr. Brooke Goldner, author of “Goodbye Lupus,” is not only beautiful and inspiring, but a brilliant doctor who healed herself of Lupus.  She was dying, literally, of the disease.  Her doctors told her she wouldn’t live more than a year.  She met the handsome Thomas Tadlock, who asked her to marry him, and she asked him to get her in shape for their wedding.  This Green Smoothie was part of the protocol.

She drank it everyday, got super strong with weights and her Lupus symptoms diminished greatly…a side benefit they didn’t even realize would happen.  Within a few more months, her Lupus was GONE! was doing amazing things for her lupus.  It was healing her.  They drink their smoothie everyday, as well as her patients, flooding their bodies with nutrients and vitamins that fight free radicals and keep your body humming with health, no matter what ails you.

• 1 lb. mixed greens:  like Kale, bok choy, spinach, romaine, swiss chard
• 1-2 cups of chopped fruit of your choice:  pineapple, bananas, mango, mixed berries, melon, etc. Your choice. (I like them frozen!)
• ¼ cup whole, organic flaxseeds
• 5 cups Filtered Water: enough to reach almost to the top of the greens in the blender

1. In the container of a high speed blender (Vitamix) pack your greens to fill the container ¾ full.
2. Add flaxseeds.
3. Add fruit to reach the top of the blender Pour in water.
4. Blend until super smooth.
5. Drink all day long…you must finish it!!!
6. Say Yay for flooding your body with health!

Notes:

Smoothie will be bright green if using light colored fruit:  bananas are a must!, pineapple, peaches, mangos, kiwi, etc.  If using blueberries or blackberries the smoothie will be army green.  Both great at fighting any sinister goings on in our bodies!
