The Live Green Smoothie Diet

The combined nutritional arsenal of broccoli, pineapple, and fresh turmeric root in this smoothie makes drinking this naturally creamy smoothie like resurrecting a health-protecting fortress.

Broccoli is well-known for its cancer-protecting (and some even say cancer-curing) ability. Turmeric root is highly regarded by both alternative health and the scientific community for its apparent anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and digestion-soothing potency. And the bromelain in pineapple is well-established as one way to help improve digestion and soothe stomach ailments.

The high amount of protein in the broccoli appears to be what provides the natural frothy-creaminess when used in smoothies, and the pineapple gives both a delicious sweetness and a nice “zing” to this refreshing drink. And you can add some raw honey if you want more sweetness and to jack up the anti-inflammatory quotient even higher!

I’ve included two ratios of pineapple to broccoli in the recipe, so that you can make a greener, less sweet version if your diet requires less sugar.
