Quotes to ponder:

"Smoothies are one of my favorite ways to pack a ton of fiber-rich leafy greens, free-radical-fighting berries, and other important nutrients into each day!"

"The best smoothies don’t just deliver a healthy dose of nutrients; they keep you full until your next meal, taste great, and don’t spike your blood sugar."

"As long as your smoothies contain greens, fiber, healthy fats, protein, and a liquid, you’ll be good to go!"
