Eating Healthy Made Easy

Having a Blendtec Total Blender in our home made eating healthy easier

Did you know that only 11% of adults meet the USDA guidelines for eating of fruits and vegetables? One thing I learned is that a lot of people don't eat healthy because they don't have or make the time to prepare healthy food. I have found this to be true since getting married. My husband has always liked to watch what he eats. What I found though was that many times he ate unhealthy because he didn't want to take the time to cut up some fruit or cook some vegetables.

So I started making a green smoothie every day for him with our Blendtec Total Blender. Green smoothies are blended beverages that combine fresh or frozen fruit and leafy greens like kale, collard, and spinach to make nutritious eating easy, quick and delicious. Green Smoothies are one of the most nutritious ways to eat a whole-food meal fast. These super-food shakes are the newest blend trend and have become a popular staple among health-conscious people who praise their health benefits ranging from weight loss to increased energy and mental focus. Green smoothies are a great way to detox as they are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, live enzymes, and amino acids.

As we started to consume larger portions of high-nutrient dense foods with green smoothies, our appetite for low-nutrient dense foods decreased and we crave our daily dose of blended greens. He resisted at first, but now he makes them on his own! He says it's because it's a lot easier to just throw some fruit and vegetables and press a button, than spend 15 minutes preparing something to eat.

Having a Blendtec Total Blender in your home will make eating healthy easier for your family just like it did for mine. Why? First, because you can make a green smoothie with 4 servings of fruits and vegetables in just 2 minutes. Second, it's easy to eat something that tastes good!
