! As a Restorative Health Coach, I help you gain clarity so that you too can make better choices. My passion is to help you create your most vibrant Healthalicious life! Keep in mind that this is not a diet; it is a way of life. Smoothies are a really great way to pack in a lot of nutrients all at once, and the recipes here are all delicious.

The recipes in this book will give you that amazing energy, because by drinking smoothies, you are giving your body nutrients in an easy-to-digest from, giving your digestion a break and leaving more energy for you. Digesting food takes a lot of energy away from your bod, and, if you are eating foods that are robbing you of energy, what is left for you? NADA! ZIP! ZILTCH! Let s change that today. Let s kick the cravings to the curb and say hello to awesome nights of sleep and easy weight loss. Are you ready to say goodbye to the crash and burn feeling at 4 pm and say hello to feeling great all day long?

Time for this party to get going! XOXO Elaine Gibson If any questions come up during the program, please feel free to email me at elaine@renewedlivinginc.com P.S. be sure to join our private Facebook group and check in daily to let us know how you are doing! Smoothies are: SO WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH SMOOTHIES? WHY ARE THEY GOOD FOR YOU? Chock full of vitamins, enzymes, and minerals Easy to digest, which means optimal assimilation of nutrients Great for stabilizing blood sugar (you will see each smoothie here has a healthy fat, and fat is key for blood sugar stabilization) A fabulous way to consume a variety of different fruits or vegetables at one time Terrific for cleansing the body of toxicity An easy way to add more fiber to your diet for optimal bowel function SMOOTHIES WILL GIVE YOU MORE ENERGY & ARE THE BEST ON-THE-GO MEAL KNOWN TO MAN. WHY IS BLENDING YOUR SMOOTHIE BENEFICIAL? The health of your body depends on your digestion. When you blend your foods, you are supporting digestion. Your body does not have to

work so hard to break down the nutrients, as they are in a predigestible state. Did you know that 80% of your energy is spent digesting and assimilating your nutrients? So why not support your body to do less work? Instead of having to prepare and eat cup after cup of healthy greens or fruits, you are packing them into one nutrient-dense smoothie. CHOOSING A BLENDER: Vitamix is a super powerful blender with a very strong motor that not only can blend smoothies, but also can make nut butters and even soups; however, at around $499, it is an investment. Blendtec is another option similar to Vitamix and costs about $350. Nutribullet is a great alternative, as it costs only $99. A blender at Costco, Wal-Mart, or Target will typically cost you around $20. REMEMBER, ANY BLENDER WILL WORK. WE WANT YOU TO START DRINKING SMOOTHIES TO SUPPORT YOUR BODY FOR ULTIMATE HEALTH. MAKING THE ULTIMATE SMOOTHIE 1. Choose the liquid water, coconut water, or a dairy-free milk 2. Choose your greens kale, spinach, parsley, Swiss chard, collards, or lettuce 3. Choose your fruit banana, apple, berries, mango, or leave out the fruit 4. Choose your fat/protein hemp seeds, hemp protein, nut butters, avocado, coconut oil, flax or chia seeds 5. Add a superfood maca, raw cacao, bee pollen, shredded coconut, goji berries, camu camu, or any other of your choosing

THE BASICS Over the next 7 days, you are going to make your shopping list for the ingredients and start improving your health by making the smoothies. For an extra boost of protein in the morning, feel free to add protein powder, such as pea protein, hemp protein, or Vega. You can have smoothies for both breakfast and lunch, if desired, but the challenge is to add at least add in one smoothie a day. ELAINE S TASTY TIPS! It is important to note that these smoothies are not heavy in fruit only. They are a good balance to keep you on the alkaline side of your intake. This is key! Use organic foods when possible. If food is out of season, reach for the organic frozen varieties. Be sure that all produce is washed properly using alkaline water, when possible. BIO-INDIVIDUALITY Bio-individuality is the idea that each of us is different and that no two bodies are alike. This is why some people thrive on vegetarian diets while others need meat, or why some people can do 100% raw foods while others need cooked meals in order to attain and maintain optimal health. If you are a cool-bodied person by nature, you can add warming spices to your smoothie to improve digestion and nutrient assimilation. Try using cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, turmeric, or cayenne. I suggest starting with a dash and then increasing to 1/2 teaspoon. If you are a warm-bodied person by nature, you can add in cooling spices, such as mint, cilantro, or cardamom. SMOOTHIE MIX-INS
