How to make a fat-burning green smoothie

Posted by Abel James | Last Updated: April 28, 2014

green smoothie - fat burning man

Whew, what a whirlwind. Just finished filming in LA for a new documentary about how to get back to your ancestral roots and reclaim your health and vitality. Details soon…

To counter the jet lag, I just downed a huge green smoothie – have you had yours today?

I get loads of emails asking, “Abel, what do you put in your green smoothies?” I’m about to spill the beans.

Drinking a green smoothie every day will provide you with all the vitamins you need, which comes out to be more economical than multivitamins. Green smoothies have a balanced natural sugar content, so they offer a burst of energy that’s easily metabolized and a lot better for your body than the sugary juices you find on grocery store shelves.

Plus, they keep you hydrated, are easy to digest, and help boost your immune system to help shed excess weight.

Berry Healing Cleanse Smoothie

Berry Healing Cleanse Smoothie

We love this popular smoothie for the healing and cleansing balanced combination of vitamins, minerals, fiber, water and phytonutrients. Cucumber and celery are classic cleansers and the berries add more vitamins as well as antioxidants, fiber and delicious flavor. The ginger is a powerful cleanser and anti-inflammatory for healing and the chia seeds add protein along with omega 3 fatty acids with their many potent health benefits.

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen berries
  • ½ cucumber
  • 2 celery ribs
  • 1-inch piece ginger root
  • 1 tbsp hemp or chia seeds
  • 1 cup water

Add all ingredients to the blender, and process until smooth.

Extra Iron Smoothie

Extra Iron Smoothie

Both the stems and the leaves can be consumed, and are rich in antioxidants, the substances that help to defend your body from free radical damage. Cilantro is an excellent source of potassium, a mineral that helps to balance the fluid levels within your body.

  • 1 orange
  • 1 cup strawberries
  • 2 cups greens
  • 1 handful cilantro
  • 1 cup coconut water or regular water

Add all ingredients to the blender, and process until smooth.

    Love the new app! Of course that’s no surprise, because I LOVE ALL YOUR APPS! Thanks for making it easy, beautiful, fun, and nutrient dense. I’ve been in a boring rut with my smoothies lately. Now I’ll have an excuse to be brave and try exotic and slightly frightening ingredients in my smoothie…. like bok choy 🙂 Yay for new culinary adventures!!

    First I have to say that I love every recipe I’ve tried from your cookbook and Caveman Feast app. They are delicious and make eating whole foods really easy and effortless. I just purchased a Blendtec and have been experimenting with green smoothies some which have been good and some not so good. I saw your Green Smoothie 30 Day Challenge and got really excited, but was disappointed that there is not an app for Android. Do you have a date as to when it will be coming out on the Play market?
