Raw foods are becoming more and more popular for weight management.

You could start your day like this (this is my son’s invention for a morning drink):

Gabe’s Vegetable Green Drink Recipe

Whiz up in the blender, the following
Celery, 6 inches
Cucumber, 6 inches
1 Carrot, 8 inches
1 Tomato, medium
Add distilled or purified water, about 1 cup
Blend – well it does look more red/orange because it is not all green!
Drink!   You will grow accustomed to it, if you don’t immediately love it – and you know you’ve already had lots of vegetables to start your day.

Dr. Oz on Oprah has a Green Drink Recipe  (my son invented his 4 years ago)…

As featured on Oprah, here are the ingredients for the Dr. Oz Green Drink Recipe:

2 apples, cored
2 big handfuls of spinach
half cup chopped parsley
1 celery stick, chopped
1 inch length of ginger root, peeled
1 lemon – juice only
1 medium cucumber
Place ingredients in a blender, add 4 ounces of spring water, or a handful of ice cubes, then puree quickly for one minute.  Makes 2 glasses of Dr. Oz’s green drink.

Drinking either of these green drinks will help to reduce cravings for junk food, sugar, and processed foods by providing power packed nutrition, which means your body is not always hungry and searching for something else to fill it.

The raw foods and power packed nutrition can lead to weight management and weight loss.
