Green Smoothie with Broccoli

Broccoli has been described as one of natures most perfect foods. It also contains the anti-cancer compound Sulforaphane, which is in numerous clinical trials[13] including a phase II trial for prostate cancer.[14], which is under study in a variety of clinical trials. Wikipedia reports, "Sulforaphane is in numerous clinical trials[13] including a phase II trial for prostate cancer.[14]. To see those reports, see the the notes under "Sulforaphane."

I liked the broccoli green smoothie, but you have to be in the right mindset for it. It has an earthy flavor. I was able to drink 4 cups of it without getting tired of it, which has not been true of a few of my experiments.

Green Smoothies

Green smoothies are popular right now. It's a simple, fast and delicious way to eat servings of fruits and vegetables. If we eat a smoothie of spinach leaves and frozen strawberries versus hamburgers and fries, most would agree we've made the more-healthy meal choice.

I plan to use green smoothies as part of my plan to lose a lot of weight-- like 50 lbs. I'm using a BlendTec blender

Here's a video I made to show how to make a green smoothie.
