I didn’t have bee pollen and I didn’t have an avocado, so I couldn’t add those…. but it was really good! (I won’t lie… I was relieved!)

Did he have to cut out goat milk products as well? I have IBS, as well as many other health problems and limitations. I would not like to give up goat milk, or the plain yogurt and cheese made from goat milk. But, I’d try anything.

You can refrigerate this smoothie for about two days, but I personally think the taste is better when made fresh. I would recommend cutting the recipe in half to avoid keeping it in the fridge for too long.

stacy-great advice, now I try to get my greens in a powder form but also not just organic but fermented too,

deborah R-if one has gut issues then yes it will cause problems like gas,bloating,but if you have decent digestion going on then it will generally help soothe the stomach lining, everyone is different, some have leaky gut and or SIBO, and need a very special health protocol as taking probiotics will have you feeling worse as there is too much bacterial overgrowth.

collagen protein and gelatin will help with digestion, any other protein powder is not good with fruit.

So why use raw leafy greens in your smoothies?

Which theory is correct please ? I’m very confused as to whether to have green smoothies with raw vegetables, or not. Many thanks , Diana

I just saw bee pollen at Walmart next to the chia sseds.

Hello Savannah, you should be able to keep this recipe in the fridge up to two days and a bit longer in the freezer.

Bernard Jensen has a wonderful ‘Liquid Dulse’ . half a teaspoon twice daily. Also black walnut is high in iodine. Dr Christopher & Dr Hulda Clark are excellent brands of Black Walnut extract. One can take 1 tspn or more of the black walnut 3 times daily. And apply as a compress to the throat, where the body will absorb the organic iodine directly . Plus, learn a relaxtion technique. High emotional upsets leads to increase buring up of the iodine in the body which in turn causes thyroid problems. Solution: iodine rich foods, daily relaxation & learning to “accept whatever decision is made & go along with Life peacefully”

lecithin granules or powder will provide the same rich smoothness as well as lipids need for a healthy brain & nervous system. there is one that is made from soy & one that is made from sunflower seeds

Lobelia extract has the same benefit..in case of seizures immediately rub around base of skull..& dropper into the mouth as much as possible. will abort a seizure rapidly.

honey for children over 12 months is fine. use raw honey that comes from the area around where you live is best. farmers market or local apiary is best.

its the cruciferea family of vegetables that inhibit the absorption of iodine & thereby irritate the thyroid. kale, cabbage & others. Spinach is Not a member of cruciferea. Best to use as much Variety as possible in shakes (& foods)..whatever is in season is least likely to be ‘chemically manipulated’..& is more likely to be grown locally & therefore fresh. As well as economical. One needs elements from the fruits vegetables, seeds, nuts & grain from all 4 seasons in order to build a healthy strong body

kale is a sulpur vegetable which does cause gas in those with a sensitive bowel. any other dark greens are preferable..spinach, parsley, celery, beet greens, dark green lettuce leaves etc

bananas have small thin glass like seeds that , if eaten in large quantities can & often do irritate the mucus lining of the bowel. Best to eat the banaas very ripe. And one a day is acceptable.

fresh is Always Best..make it drink it )

What are you considering a grain in this recipe?

Yes plesae, Zahira, will you share your recipe? It would help others, like me.

I once read that if you shower twice a day for 2 weeks and eat beef and stewed tomatoes once a day, it will curb your cigarette addition. The beef and stewed tomatoes draw the nicotine out of your cells. The showers wash the nicotine off your skin. I’m not a smoker, but I’m around a lot of smokers. I would be interested to know if this works.

I would cleanse my colon. Bone broth, magnesium oxide, high dose vitamin C, senna, stewed prunes, anything to get yourself going. Maybe ice on tie sore stomach will help. Hope you are doing better. Slippery elm tea and mashmallow root are great for intestinal health.

As a young mom, that was the first book on health I ever bought.[“Let’s have Healthy Children”] Thanks for reminding me about vitamin C for allergic reactions. An older woman I used to know used Vitamin C for her serious reactions to almost everything.

Any suggestions on ONLY vegetable juices?

Kim, I am so sorry to hear that you and your daughter are going through this. I recommend consulting her primary healthcare physician who better understands her medical history about the smoothie; However, here are a few articles on Crohn’s I think you may find helpful:
