Yummm!
Yummm! I got a personal smoothie maker recently to help add more fruits into my diet. Smoothies for Life! Yummy, Fun, and Nutritious! provided some tasty recipes to help. Easy instructions and something of everything. The recipe for the migraine soothing recipe works!
Very good nutritious smoothies. Less value for casual users.
`Smoothies for Life' by nutritionists, Daniella Chace and Maureen B. Keane is one of those books you dread when you pick up a book on food which claims to present an important nutritional point of view. As the book was written and published in 1999, there is a good chance that some of the nutritional information may be a bit out of date. I am not an expert on nutrition, but I sensed that the book did not give as much emphasis to blueberries as an ingredient as you will see in current books.

a super book for great nutrition
I found Smoothies for Life! Yummy, Fun, and Nutritious! to be extremely helpful at adding special ingredients and supplements into my diet. The book is layed out in a way that makes it easy to read and use. If you're going to be making smoothies this is the title to get you going
Smoothies for Juicers
I owned 'Juicing for Life' long before buying Smoothies for Life! Yummy, Fun, and Nutritious!. I liked that one, so I bought the smoothie book when it came out. As a believer in the power of juice consumption, I found Smoothies for Life! Yummy, Fun, and Nutritious! to be an excellent reader also. This is more than another 'fun' smoothie book for those looking for entertainment. It's broken down by chapters into "Energizers", "Power Makers", "Calorie Burners", "Immunizers", etc., in its 11 chapters of recipes. Specific ingredients for specific goals. The explanations of ingredients needs are excellent, as they were in her juicing book.
One caveat: don't expect all the recipes in Smoothies for Life! Yummy, Fun, and Nutritious! to be low-cal, as they aren't. Tahini and peanut butter are two common ingredients. That may or may not be important ... Read More
