Life Changing Benefits of Green Smoothies

1) Weight loss. Increasing the number of fruit and vegetables you eat in a day gives you body an opportunity to shed excess fat and water weight built up from toxins stored in the body.

2) Muscle Gain. Popeye had it right. Leafy greens do actually contain a lot of protein which helps to build muscle. But that’s not all. They also contain an abundance of other nutrients which are also needed to help build a strong, healthy body. Just look at all the vegan bodybuilders and professional athletes we now have. They know the value of including leafy greens in their diets and their results prove that leafy greens are working incredibly well for them.
