You forget to mention a staggering important fact. Kale, Spinach & Swiss Chard are all riddled with oxalates, especially when you go and turn them in to a smoothie. In fact, those three contain more oxalates that any other fruit or vegetable. And you're a doctor??? 🤣
Can I just say, I love that you informed, corrected, gave tips, and showed an actual recipe with simple enough ingredients that many can access? Brilliant video! Thank you for this!
I stick to only one fruit to avoid the sugar overload, but I go all the way with the greens: brussel sprouts, broccoli, Spanish, carrot, ginger(a piece of ginger block the veggie taste), chia seeds, flax seed, a banana or berries.
imo i just avoid processed sugar or anything unnatural. fruits are natural, greens are natural. i still need it to taste sweet so i'll put lots of fruits. i add lots of greens for the health benefits, as long as i cant taste them
@MP that must taste disgusting lol I want to eat that many veggies, do you have any ideas for making that taste sweet (obv take out ginger) but what to add?
Thank you so much. Originally, I thought this was going to be based, but you have credibility and I've been hearing how people overdue homemade smoothies just as buying the store-bought, since they are loaded down with sugar, but you informed us that when they sit on the shelf, even when refrigerated, the nutrient quality of those store-bought smoothies go down. I just got back from doing grocery shopping, and I took a leap of faith and decided not to buy the store-bought since I make them at home anyway, and I want to do them right. It is said that there is a right way to do something, and there is a wrong way to do it, and you have proved that. Since I do have a health challenge, I look at my diet as a lifestyle change for life, not for the short-term and the quick fix. There is so much wrong information out there, and we all owe it to ourselves to discern good information from bad information. Thank you so much.
wow did the good Dr. just say “sugar” instead of “Glucose?” And is glucose like ten times easier for the body to assimilate compared to sugar? If so then drink up Green Monster Smoothie? A green monster smoothie saved my life after my doctor said there was no cure for eczema. And remember to avoid drinking all processed sugars! 😉
Maybe you could soak them, place in an ice tray and then freeze. Chia ice cubes. Or hell, just place chia seeds and water in ice trays, I'm sure they'll have plenty of time to soak before it freezes.
I make my own from wild berries and loaded with organic vegetables: Kale, arugula, spinach, etc. With collegan, ground flaxseed, basil seeds, half a banana, vegan protein, powdered peanut butter, and lemon juice. Make your own EVERYTHING people!!! ❤❤
I would only ever use blueberries for sweetness, I prefer the veg taste I also add seaweed and turmeric alongside a host of vegetables. Best way to detoxify 💙
I only drank smoothies for a month without any added artificial sugar or dairy , added all kind of vegetables to it beat carrot spinach lettuce . Worked out occasionally . And after a month I climbed up to 13000 ft in the Himalayas. Someone who couldn’t even climb 2 stairs without panting . Talk about life changing experience . Avoid grains gluten related foods ,dairy, sugar processed foods ,stress and bad sleeping habits . You wil feel more alive than you’ve ever felt
I avoid the dark greens like spinach, kale and chards. I used to have them in my smoothie everyday on weekdays for years and the oxolates caused an imbalance in my TSH levels. I dropped them and replaced it with romaine lettuce and the TSH levels came back within range.
Lettuce? Please help me understand this. I'm genuinely curious if there's something I missed. But from my understanding lettuce is like 98% water, with almost no nutritional value. What's the benefit of adding it at all?
Please everyone listen to your body and understand too much of anything can be bad. The amount of oxalates in this proposed recipe is very high. If you do not process oxalates effectively due to a variety of reasons too much of these green smoothies can land you in the ER, just ask Liam Hemsworth who had to have emergency surgery after downing spinach based green smoothies to have a large oxalic stone removed from his kidney. Everyone is different and some people can process oxalates out of the body better than others. After doing green smoothies and fresh juicing for 6 months I got to the point where I have so much oxalates accumulation in my joints and soft tissue that I get tremendous joint pain that comes and goes, ringing in ears, random bouts of dizziness, and at times piss out sharp crystals, and of course kidney pain. Again listen to your body nobody cares about you as much as you do. So much of what we’re be told to eat is loaded with oxalates. If you go gluten free and decide to do gluten free bread and snacks that stuff is all made with high oxalate containing ingredients. “Plant based “ is thrown around like the holy grail, just understand Oreos,most of today’s processed junk foods are plant based, and proudly display it on the packaging….if you eat 99% of plants on earth they will kill or make you sick, it’s only the 1% that we can eat without immediate ill effects and gain some benefit, but oxalates, lecithins and other plant defense toxins can accumulate and cause long term damage. Just remember tobacco is plant based and has these same defense chemicals
Natural sugar is needed in a complete diet, like pineapple, grapes, oranges etc. Added bleached white sugar is what you dont want to much of, those pre-prepped smoothies can usually have added sugar. So in the end your own blended smoothies are way better. ALSO make sure to eat a small healthy meal b4 ur smoothie as our stomach needs us to chew in order to properly digest.
@@DrTazMD hey, gods sugar is different to man made sugar. Please educate yourself. Look up dr sebi. You’re just a commercial health ranter. When you mix fruit with acidic foods and blood that’s when you get problems. If you only eat plants and alkaline foods you wouldn’t have any problems. Meat, dairy soy, starch, wheat all mucous inflammation. Sickness
@@DrTazMD I started plant based diet and did drink one liter of orange juice a day,witch I know isn’t a part of the plant based diet, but in the same time did I cure my diabetes 2 and loose 70 pounds in 7 months
Glad to see my formulations of smoothies have been in the ballpark for health. Fruit 100 grams. Fiber 100 grams Fat 28 grams . I add a lot of powders like cacao, cinnamon, beetroot, taurine, Curcumin, flax seed. Thanks for the sensible smart green smoothie recipe . I’ll try it! Somebody just gave me a pile of kale! Hahah, I just reread my ingredients. Not 100 grams of fiber, 100 grams of legumes!
I make a similar smoothie … add mint TO the blend and it brings out the yummy flavors. I make 40oz as a daily challenge and have a healthy dinner if I’m still hungry. Another key is to have a home made ginger shot for a wake up am boost. Fat is melting off! Not muscle!
My recipe is water, plant based organic protein powder, golden flax, matcha green powder, cacao, fresh ginger, cuke, spinach, banana, frozen wild blueberries and mango😋
I am going to start doing them s3veral times per week if not daily. 75% deep green leafy veggies like kale or spinach, 25% whoke organic frozen berries or fruit, and a couple of teaspoons flax and/or chia seeds.
It’s not green but…Strawberries, blackberries, redcurrants, blackcurrants, broccoli, kale, spinach, banana, flaxseeds, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, hemp powder. Water. Is that a decent recipe or should I change it? Add lemon? I tried ginger but it was a bit strong in taste. Will beetroot taste weird?
Spinach & Swiss chard are really high in oxalates. If you make this recipe often you’ll likely end up with kidney stones or other problems from the oxalates…
If you use spinach & Swiss chard, as a part of your smoothie, regularly, organic lemon juice which increases urine citrate can prevent and dissolve kidney stones.
@3:42 Why not psyllium husk? If you only use a small amount (half a teaspoon) it makes your smoothies super thick and filling. I like eating mine with a spoon with some added nuts or hemp seeds.
The key is have more veggies then fruits in your smoothie. I do 3 veg and 2 fruit or 4 veg and 2 fruit with water and always chia seed as well for extra fiber.
For the past 6 week ive been on a health kick of celery, baby spinach, purple carrot, purple sweet potato, a green, frozen banana with wheat grass powder, with a water and cranberry juice base in the nutribullet. When a vegetable runs out I substitute it with another like broccoli, cauliflower, or cucumber. When run out of wheatgrass power I sustitute another powder like acai berry or cordycep mushrooms.
i use fruits, as many as possible. i still want it to be sweet. for me as long as there's nothing artificial. i'm trying to have a tasty non-artificial drink, not bitter medicine
My mom was just diagnosed with hyperthyroidism Alzheimer’s, what can I give her to help her brain to stop the Alzheimer’s? Is there a certain smoothie I can make her?
I use kale, berries soy milk and water. frozen berries work well in vitamix, alma powder, ginger powder, flax seed or or any combo of nuts and seeds. Can't go wrong with mixing in any live greens and fruit.
one tipp! do not use greens and red or blue fruit together..it always make am ugly "brown colour!. imagine colourscale 😉your eye always eaten with you..if you use greens, then take fruits they are yellow for example, melone, apple , kiwi , whatever-.. but avoid adding green and blue and red together.. not strawberrys..or blueberrys. you can do an extra one with that fruits without using green in it...looks good tasted better😍
Generally I don’t listen to MD’s for my nutrition, rather I listen to dietitians. Sugar in fruit is just fine; but yes, never juiced.. Fruit Fiber is very important! I never use sweetener or juice. I do include quit a bit of fruit. I’m not concerned about the calories in the fruit.
Good tips thank you but I gotta say that ended up looking pretty unappetizing with that surprising weird brown color 🤢😅 I thought it would turn out all green and “healthy looking”
Sometimes depending on the combo it can be a little sour, what I personally do and have worked for me is I tend to add a spoon of organic honey as sweetner.
Great you are doing this- so many of us are just feeling the effects of the Sad American Diet. But Taste is acquired, so just keep lowering the amt of sweetner little by little.
Hello. I make something similar. I've ever used juice or nut milks. I always throw in some celery, frozen broccoli, turmeric and a dash of black pepper. I call it my super smoothie!!! New sub from Ontario Canada!! PS- I'm in love with my vitamix too!!!!
How many cups or greens can someone have per day in their smoothie, can I drink a green smoothie every morning? I'm on the keto diet and I'm trying to get all my veggies in and smoothies are easy for me
Here is what is is in a nutshell. Any fruit and or vegetable blend that is mass produced and bottled up is not a healthy choice. The part where they are losing nutrients is a two part truth. The actual truth to focus on is the word "pasteurized". That word is 2 truths in one. Once when juiced and is heated, then bottled or canned, the nutrients has been dramatically reduced. They can be still good for you, but the other problem is the added sugar. Yes, I do drink low sodium V8 as it is convenient, but blending up a green smoothie is the ultimate way to go. Never add anything processed like you see people adding specialized powders that promises a so called nutrient boost. When ever you prepare a smoothie, it is best to not let it sit no more than 48 hours because the chemical make up of nutrients began to break down due to the fact that everything organic deteriorates over time. End the end, I will give you an idea of a combination to blend... 3-4 cups of Spinach, 10 table spoons of FRESH lemon juice from the actual lemon, 1 medium or large banana one granny smith apple, 1/4 of a medium or large avocado and 2/3 cup of water. More water can be added. You see, when it comes to a green smoothie, the smoothie must be a vibrant green. The greener a smoothie, the healthier it is especially for diabetics.
I use watermelon, 1 lemon, 1 cutie orange. power greens, strawberries ,blackberries, raspberries, 4oz of power green juice that I make, 2 tablespoons each of l. Reuteri yogurt, l. Gasseri yogurt, tremella, chia seeds and sea moss. Try to use organic if you can.
My smoothie has water as the base, an organic vegan protein power from Costco called Orgain, raw spinach, broccoli, and kale with cinnamon. Is it sweet? He'll no it's not sweet!!! But it is healthy and makes me feel strong. I drink it a few times a week when I don't feel like cooking the vegetables.
I've been looking into healing my gut as well as improving my overall diet [and therefore, health]. I've seen Psyllium recommended a bunch, but what is the best way to take or consume psyllium/ psyllium husks?
I use 2 cups of spinach, 1 egg, half a cucumber, almond milk, plain Greek yogurt and a quarter scoop of some protein powder that’s is plant based to sweeten it up:it’s a non sugary powder. It’s great.
Smoothies often deliver too much, too fast. Definitely a good choice if you have dental issues, but whole food is a better option if you can chew. Unfortunately a blender can quickly become worthless, if you are not making smoothies.
Since a few of the ingredients of the smoothie is restricted for individuals with CKD because of high potassium and phosphorus content such as the spinach , chard, and bananas.. What are the alternatives recommend for individuals on a renal diet who wish to include the smoothie for the health benefits? As I've yet to see a smoothie recommend for people with Kidney Disease!
I've seen some people using a strainer to separate the 'pulp/fibers' from the juice.. what are your thoughts on that? does it do any harm drinking it directly from the blender without straining??
Exactly and that can cause bloating to some! That’s why sometimes you might not feel Great after eating …. Let’s say broccoli…. Not everything is for everyone l, nutrition is a matter of curiosity and adaptation
If you want more fiber, it's more effective to take more greens and fruits than some little seeds. You really shouldnt worry at all about your fiber if you eat/drink regullary smoothies or just eat a lot of raw food in general.
Absolutely! Whole fruits, veggies, and greens provide a wide range of fiber along with essential vitamins and minerals. While seeds can be a convenient boost, a diet rich in raw foods generally covers fiber needs well. Do you have a favorite smoothie or raw meal to get your daily fiber?
@DrTazMD Yes ofcourse. One day I take a green one:250grams spinach, bananas, figs, kiwi, lemon. And the other day something on a base of 200grams dates and 350 grams bananas plus berries or nature choclate or vanilla or what ever I like. 😋
It’s a myth think about it , if you eat veggies and fruits separately it all goes one place in your stomach to be digested and from personal experience I blend vegetables and fruits I’ve been doing it for years I haven’t had a problem , so I don’t know where this myth came from .
Ready-made green juices and smoothies are usually total crap, just half a pint of sugary pineapple juice or concentrated apple juice and one leaf of spinach or kale. As someone who tries to keep their carbs under 20g/day I only ever make my own.
When I go to Mexico, I go to market to the juice stand they one that is call jugo verde that stands for green juice the base is Orange juice real one the alovera nopal captus spinash green apple and alfalfa. for 3 dollars a gallon all make nTurraly on front of you.

I add literally a few DROPS of liquid stevia. DELICIOUS!!!!
Did you lose weight ?
chia seeds must b soaked till it expands then add to any smoothy not directly.
Exactly, unless you want to clogges your guts. Its not spoken enough to add chia or flex seeds after soaking it in water first.
Maybe you could soak them, place in an ice tray and then freeze. Chia ice cubes. Or hell, just place chia seeds and water in ice trays, I'm sure they'll have plenty of time to soak before it freezes.
Mango, avocado, yogurt, spinach, kale,banana , ginger , almond milk and chia seeds hope i did it the right way
Also, using green tea as a base seems to give a nice energy boost for mornings.
That’s a great idea

Thank you for your smoothie recipe... I overcomplicated my smoothies and you simplified it for me by using just water...

@@keirthomas2491 that's what I thought too, along with cucumbers. But just research the nutritional value of both these and you'd be surprised.
great point!
Seaweed definitely lowers my TSH.
Yea thats why I avoid spinach, but kale is much better.
I do add chia to a lot of my drinks but you can't let the drink sit very long because it gets too thick with the chia.

If you use spinach & Swiss chard, as a part of your smoothie, regularly, organic lemon juice which increases urine citrate can prevent and dissolve kidney stones.
Pairing it with some kind of dairy product also combats the oxalate effect
Also increases oxalates if you add almond milk.
It won’t hurt you if you aren’t in kidney failure, no problem with oxalates for most people. Really.

Why don’t you use seeds?
Fruits in a green smoothie are fine as long as you put the whole fruit in there, and it only makes up 25 to 30 percent of the whole smoothie.
The key is have more veggies then fruits in your smoothie. I do 3 veg and 2 fruit or 4 veg and 2 fruit with water and always chia seed as well for extra fiber.

uh oh, I need to change my ingredients then because I am guilty of adding both to the same smoothie 😢
I use watermelon, 1 lemon, 1 cutie orange. power greens, strawberries ,blackberries, raspberries, 4oz of power green juice that I make, 2 tablespoons each of l. Reuteri yogurt, l. Gasseri yogurt, tremella, chia seeds and sea moss. Try to use organic if you can.
How many times a week should you consume a smoothie such as this one?
I do all greens vegetables spinach kale broccoli parsley and brussel sprout no fruits like a real man
Why do we need to add fiber to something that has Swiss Chard which has tons of fiber?
My smoothie has water as the base, an organic vegan protein power from Costco called Orgain, raw spinach, broccoli, and kale with cinnamon. Is it sweet? He'll no it's not sweet!!! But it is healthy and makes me feel strong. I drink it a few times a week when I don't feel like cooking the vegetables.
awesome
What about using the frozen ones?
I make my own green juice and consume it same day. I dont leave it overnight.
good
Can people with estrogen dominance & hypothyroidism eat raw kale & spinach? Shall we cook them before blending them? Please advise 🙏
An MD telling you to add collagen powder 🤔
yup
Trying to combat diabetes. I read now that the fiber is destroyed in the blending process and its like drinking juice
Can I cure candida and sibo with long juice fasting?
I've been looking into healing my gut as well as improving my overall diet [and therefore, health]. I've seen Psyllium recommended a bunch, but what is the best way to take or consume psyllium/ psyllium husks?
I get the opposite effect - constipation from too much fiber. I have to consume a tea that eases constipation.
Is green smoothie a fructose?
Why was psyllium husk a disaster in the smoothie?
I use 2 cups of spinach, 1 egg, half a cucumber, almond milk, plain Greek yogurt and a quarter scoop of some protein powder that’s is plant based to sweeten it up:it’s a non sugary powder. It’s great.
I read that it can be bad to mix fruits with vegetables. Is that true?
Hi
it can be hard to digest the two together- if you are having candida and yeast issues- better to separate
I always pop 3 raw eggs in my morning smoothie for protein
can you freeze the juice after blending for later use? or will that bring down the nutrients?
you can- maybe a bit lower
Can you use a regular blender ?
yea!
I was at vitality bowl every other day and my a1c hit PD
What was the size of your bowls you were using
Smoothies often deliver too much, too fast. Definitely a good choice if you have dental issues, but whole food is a better option if you can chew.
Unfortunately a blender can quickly become worthless, if you are not making smoothies.
I use spinach kale chard flaxseed bananas mangos grapes and water as a base ...75% greens 25% fruit
Cook and blanch those greens first (even for as little as 1 minute) to avoid oxalate buildup.
We are not buying concentrated juices from a store. More like homemade.
Lemon for the bad things in kale and spinach? If so in how much? Thanks
How about veggie powder such as kale or beets?
i add a lot of psilium husk can i asj whts wrong doing this?
Since a few of the ingredients of the smoothie is restricted for individuals with CKD because of high potassium and phosphorus content such as the spinach , chard, and bananas.. What are the alternatives recommend for individuals on a renal diet who wish to include the smoothie for the health benefits? As I've yet to see a smoothie recommend for people with Kidney Disease!
Mixed baby greens, kale mango green apple
Use romain green , search leafy greens with lower levels CKD Patients have charts normally
I've seen some people using a strainer to separate the 'pulp/fibers' from the juice.. what are your thoughts on that?
does it do any harm drinking it directly from the blender without straining??
no it does not do any harm
Your my new MD girl 😁👍🏻
They are high in oxalates.
What are those？
@@Melly16yr10 Oxalates - also known as oxalic acid - is a naturally-occurring compound in plants.
Exactly and that can cause bloating to some! That’s why sometimes you might not feel
Great after eating …. Let’s say broccoli…. Not everything is for everyone l, nutrition is a matter of curiosity and adaptation
Agreed
exactly that, and goitrogens
I use unsweetened almond milk and just one small squirt of liquid stevia.
Can you explain the loss of nutrients please?
If you want more fiber, it's more effective to take more greens and fruits than some little seeds. You really shouldnt worry at all about your fiber if you eat/drink regullary smoothies or just eat a lot of raw food in general.
Absolutely! Whole fruits, veggies, and greens provide a wide range of fiber along with essential vitamins and minerals. While seeds can be a convenient boost, a diet rich in raw foods generally covers fiber needs well. Do you have a favorite smoothie or raw meal to get your daily fiber?
@DrTazMD Yes ofcourse. One day I take a green one:250grams spinach, bananas, figs, kiwi, lemon.
And the other day something on a base of 200grams dates and 350 grams bananas plus berries or nature choclate or vanilla or what ever I like. 😋
Great video
I use 1-2 tbs kale powder and broccoli powder
Im starting to hear people say it’s not safe to mix fruits and vegetables in a smoothie . Is that true?
Is it true or a myth?
It’s a myth think about it , if you eat veggies and fruits separately it all goes one place in your stomach to be digested and from personal experience I blend vegetables and fruits I’ve been doing it for years I haven’t had a problem , so I don’t know where this myth came from .
@@lamarrussell2682 - It's BS.
Can you use unsalted peanuts instead of the Seeds.
not quite the same effect but can try for sure
MAJOR difference in the glucose sugar that comes from whole fruits and the fructose that comes from processed sugars or that are in fruit juices
Ready-made green juices and smoothies are usually total crap, just half a pint of sugary pineapple juice or concentrated apple juice and one leaf of spinach or kale. As someone who tries to keep their carbs under 20g/day I only ever make my own.
Thank you, God bless you.
you are welcome
