I had decided to lose weight, but I wanted to make sure I was doing this in a healthy way, which is why I thought smoothies would be a great choice. I quickly found the Amazing Smoothie Recipes eBook which not only gave me great recipes, it also told me about the numerous health benefits of smoothies – which I was really interested in learning.
The eBook itself only cost me $9.95 and it was very easy to purchase and download, coming in a PDF file that could be saved to my computer as well as printed out to put in a ring binder. This was good for me as I was really excited to get reading and learning all about smoothies. It even had 4 bonus eBooks which are also really useful!
One thing that this eBook really helped me with is getting five or more portions of fruit and vegetables each day. It’s really important to our health, yet many of us struggle to even get three portions a day! Smoothies are a great way to overcome this problem, and eating fruit will even be fun! You can also tick off how many portions you get each day with a handy printable chart.
I wasn’t just interested in the recipes, though: I found it fascinating to sit down and simply read about how good fruit is for our bodies. When youre on a diet, it’s very reassuring to know that the recipes you’re making are giving you all the nutrients you need ” and I learned a lot from this eBook. Take, for example, the fact that an important cancer-preventing ingredient, lycopene, is found in the watermelon which can be turned into a delicious drink! And that there are a whole range of antioxidants found in different fruits.
I also recommend the recipe on page 43 for the Pink Banana Smoothie, or the Apple Passion on page 37. And the good news is that they don’t require any fancy ingredients, just fruits stocked in your local supermarket. This is even great for anyone going on a raw diet ” all it takes is a minute to whizz your food in the blender!
One important point to emphasise is that the measurements in this eBook all come in ml instead of cups. This shouldn’t be too much of a problem, since most measuring jugs come with both. If yours doesn’t, then I recommend buying a Pyrex measuring cup. Fortunately mine did measure in both, and I found that 1 cup was roughly equal to just over 200ml of juice.
My favourite thing about buying this recipe collection in eBook format was that I could download it as soon I bought it – and I could buy it at whatever time I wanted. And, since it is delivered electronically, the makers could add on the great bonus eBooks: 101 Amazing Ways to Stay Healthy, The Amazing Family Cookbook (with 500+ low sugar and low fat recipes), Amazing Vegetable Variations (300+ recipes that families love) and Amazing Fast Food Facts.
All in all, I recommend this eBook for anybody who is either looking to lose weight or just wants a fun and easy way to become more healthy.
