Green Smoothie Health Benefits
Enjoy green smoothie recipes that boost energy levels, promote vitality and improve overall health. When you commit to drinking our nutritionally-crafted smoothie recipes each day, you’re giving your body nutrient-rich fruits, fiber-packed veggies and hydrating liquids. The long-term health benefits that can come from blending a daily smoothie are incredible.
Natural Energy Boost
Blending the cell walls of fruits and vegetables releases natural sugars and plant fibers to give you sustained energy without the jitters or a crash.
Stronger Immune system
Consuming fruits and veggies high in vitamins A and C boost the immune system, which is your bodyโs natural defense system against infections and viruses.
Improved digestion
The fiber found in green smoothies acts as an internal broom to help digested food inside your body โmove along,โ which can help with bloating, acne and weight loss.
Healthier Cravings
Green smoothies are loaded with hydration, vital nutrients, plant protein and fiber, keeping you nourished and satisfied until the next meal. Swap a meal for a green smoothie to help with weight loss.
Glowing skin
Blending leafy greens into your smoothie adds a boost of calcium and chlorophyll, which help purge toxins, replenishes cells and revitalizes your skin.
Green Smoothie Challenge Results

I started green smoothies on a whim thinking I definitely could use more veggies in my life about a year ago. Now I can’t go a day without my green smoothie in the morning.

I have dappled in juicing & smoothies this last year, but have not made it a habit. Now, I make green smoothies every morning and take as a snack during my morning break. I feel better & less tired during the day since this has gotten me to stop eating crackers, granola and pretzels.
Robin Woodroof
These are the best recipes I’ve tried for green smoothies. I think the ratio of fruits to greens is what really works for me. I feel like I have tons more energy, and they help me maintain my weight. I love that smoothies taste like dessert, but they’re actually healthy for you! Even my toddler loves them!
Ashley Yagg
So easy! I was skeptical because I’m a very picky eater, but I gave it a shot. I can honestly say that I am officially on the daily smoothie train to stay!

Theyโre designed to be approachable, encouraging, and focused on progress over perfection while helping you discover new favorites.
I joined the challenge because I love a challenge and I love smoothies. This way I was sure I would be motivated to have one every day and be excited to try some fun new recipes. The recipes were delicious!! They were so satisfying I was full for hours. I have felt so clear headed and energized. I donโt wake up groggy I donโt need coffee anymore and my skin looks more radiant. Iโm so proud I rated and commented on every smoothie because Iโm normally not a person to post my thoughts but I was so excited about the smoothies!! I plan to keep it going. WooHoo!!!
Grateful for the supportive community counting on me to blend a healthy treat everyday kale yeah!
Joined the challenge to experience for myself the benefits from incorporating at least one green smoothie into my diet a day. The recipes were tasty and delicious. Each day, I looked forward to waking up to check my email for the new smoothie recipe. I noticed, skin, hair and nails improved. I felt less food cravings, less snacking, fuller, and more energetic; and I had an incredible sense of pride that grew stronger each day simply because I stayed committed.
Loved the simple, nutritious recipes. Filled my son and me full of energy! Thank you so much.
I joined the challenge to try more recipes. They all were fantastic! What surprised me is how much I learned about adding different ingredients and the many flavors they produce. I could taste specific ingredients. I am finding that fruits and vegies are so flavorful. One day, my husband made a scrambled egg for me along side the smoothie. It tasted quite bland compared to the smoothie ๐ With the smoothies for breakfast, I feel full, but not bloated. And I start something afterward and have more energy to finish it. I just keep working ๐ I have decided to have Green Smoothies most mornings for breakfast! What fun!
I joined to get back on track. The recipes were easy w only few ingredients that I actually had ( occasionally had to buy more Organic greens but no big deal. The smoothies were very filling and sometimes I couldnt even finish them and put the leftover in fridge and added more ingredients the next day. I felt satiated. But most of all my clothes are fitting more comfortably๐ค. Im proud of myself for joining and sticking to the challenge
I really enjoyed this green smoothie challenge!! All the smoothies were very tasty. I love that I can get some good greens in my body so easily. I plan on trying to keep having a smoothie every day.
I joined the challenge to be more consistent in drinking green smoothies and to get more fruits and veggies in my diet. The recipes were delicious- much better than if I randomly selected ingredients myself. I am feeling good. Iโm proud of making better food choices throughout the day.
I joined the challenge because I needed a re-set in my smoothie life! I got lazy and only made smoothies 1-2 days a week vs my normal 5-7. I like all of the recipes but didnโt really like the lacinato kale! Have to get use to that taste! I feel GREAT! always see a difference in my skin and also noticed how my appetite was curved alot! I am most proud of my family doing this with me! My husband son daughter-in-love and daughter joined me and they all canโt believe how good they feel! Thank you for this platform and being able to hear all those who participated with their comments and challenges.. very inspiring. We all want better health to be around as long as we can for family! Thanks again!
I joined the challenge to get back on track with drinking a green smoothie every day. I loved every recipe and enjoyed trying new and different combinations of fruits and greens. I drank the smoothies as a mid morning snack around 10:30 or 11 a.m., but surprisingly found they held my appetite so I wasn’t having lunch until 2 or 3pm. They are so filling they could actually be a meal replacement. It was a great challenge for me! Thank you!
I have been a member of Rawk the Year for just about a year. I started by doing challenges with Simple Green Smoothies and then joined Rawk the Year. I love it. I like having access to so many recipes and really enjoy meal planning. Grocery List is also an excellent feature. I love the way I feel when drinking a daily smoothie and eating plant based. I donโt find myself mindlessly eating whatever is in front of me like I used to because I am so satisfied with the meals I am consuming. Cravings for sugar and junk food is almost non existent. I still have my weak moments. I wish I could get my sisters interested in this lifestyle. I know they would feel so much better.
I joined the challenge to help me create healthier eating habits. I enjoyed the recipes, experimenting with what I liked and didnโt like (none were unpalatable!). Definitely feel I am getting my greens and will continue to make the smoothies regularly. Thank you for offering this challenge.
A lovely intro to juicing and seeing it wasn’t as complicated as I thought. I’ve decided a juice a day is the way to go
Excellentโso grateful for the support! Please keep offering these amazing opportunities!!!
Thank you so much!!! I loved all the smoothies BUT I have to say my absolute favorite was “Island Green Smoothie”!!! This has been a life changing week for me!!! Now!!! I am sooo totally happy that I did the challenge!!! I feel sooo much better that I am planning on making smoothies an everyday part of my life!!! I did buy the first Nama juicer years ago and absolutely LOVED it, and now this new one sounds sooo absolutely amazing to have the opportunity to own!!! Plus my plan is to do every single challenge I’ve found on your website! I even ordered a copy of your book “Simple Green Smoothies” and I bought the Vitamix Hand Blender which just came in a few days ago๐ I am sooo excited to get started on this amazing healthy plant based way of life with all the amazingly easy recipes which look so healthy and appetizing! The NEW Nama will be sooo totally helpful in my health journey to feeling Absolutely Amazing๐๐๐ I have totally LOVED your website, the video’s, the write-ups and all the healthy information shared! Thanks a million!!!
I joined this challenge to regroup and my husband wanted to join too. we loved the recipes and combos. esp the avocado ones. I feel great, felt more awake in the morning. I am proud of getting my husband to join me and doing every day
The challenge was great!! I loved trying new recipes and also some of my favorites! Starting my day with a smoothie puts me in a great mood and gives me lots of energy for the busy day ahead! Thank you for helping me stay on track by keeping my motivation high!!
This was a great challenge it really got me out of my smoothie rut. I always seem to put the same things in my smoothies. These changed up the flavors each day. It also made me start measuring the ingredients which I don’t usually do but have been thinking I needed to start. I really looked forward to trying the new smoothie each day. I will be trying the pre prepping as I think that would be a great way to have things ready and simplify mornings.
I had a lot more energy and I got in more fruits and veggies than I normally do on a typical day.
We loved the challenge. All the recipes were delicious. Favorite was the Island smoothie. We will continue to make smoothies as part of our morning routine.
