Green for Life
Everyone knows they need to eat more fruits and vegetables, but consuming even the minimum FDA-recommended five servings a day can be challenging. In Green for Life, raw foods pioneer Victoria Boutenko presents an overlooked powerhouse of nutrition in this equation: greens. For their bounty of minerals and nutrients, greens exceed other vegetables in value. Green for Life details the immense health benefits of greens and suggests an easy way to consume them in sufficient quantities: the green smoothie. This quick, simple drink benefits everyone, regardless of lifestyle, diet, or environment. Green smoothies eliminate toxins, correct nutritional deficiencies, and are delicious as well.
Green for Life includes the latest information on the abundance of protein in greens, the benefits of fiber, the role of greens in homeostasis, the significance of stomach acid, how greens make the body more alkaline, the healing power of chlorophyll, and more. Also included are the results of a pilot study demonstrating the effectiveness of adding just one quart of green smoothies a day to one’s diet, without changing anything else in dietary intake. Green smoothie testimonials and recipes give readers confidence and motivation in exploring green smoothies for themselves. This updated edition offers important new research on the role that omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids play in metabolic health and includes nutritional data on select green smoothies and updated findings on organic versus conventional produce. Offering more in-depth nutritional and experiential information than Boutenko’s recently released Green Smoothie Revolution, Green for Life makes an ideal companion piece to its recipe-rich successor.

We have an eight-year-old son, who had been diagnosed with ADHD and could not sit still!
He struggled with school work, reading, and sitting for long car rides, which left the people in his life frustrated with him and the situation. Finally, we had a consult with Kameron at Avena Originals; he suggested focusing on his diet, and so we removed food dyes, processed sugar, and wheat. Kameron also suggested some key tools from Avena, one of them was E-Fusion and was a game changer for us!
GOLD Medalist in London & Rio | Windsurfing RSX.
I used the Avena Originals incredible products during my training for the Olympics and they blew my mind away! These were game changers for me and I am sure a huge part of my GOLD medals!
Everyone should be using this! If they are not they are stupid, like serious this will change your life! My two favourite products are the RP3 Proteins & Pin Magnesium, It is almost like having super powers!
With Avena I am now healing faster than I ever have, which in my world is everything!
Avena Originals has something really special
I am in my 60's and I row inflatables 11hrs per day and then hit the gym for 3 hours every evening. I am like a freight train and unstoppable. I run circles around my son's and every other guide I work with. None of this would be possible without Avena's Products.
I am so blessed to be able to use Avena Originals to keep me strong and healthy while I guide people down the largest rivers in India and up into the remote parts of the mountains! Thank You Avena
