Available on CD or book. Here is a note from the authors: In my new book, Do You Have the Guts to be Beautiful?, I discuss that much like the food and drug industries, the beauty industry is full of false information about what's "healthy". Dr. Jennifer Daniels, a Harvard educated MD, is working with me and has shared her secrets to maintaining or regaining youthful skin. She and I start every morning with a Green Drink, and I'd like to invite you to try it.  Dr. Daniels and I both use a Vita-mix, which is a super-powered blender that can puree whole foods, including skins, stems, stalks, and other bits that are nutrient dense. However, this can also be made in a food processor or regular kitchen blender. The recipe is open to experimentation -- try other greens and fruits as well. I like using frozen banana, and frozen red, seedless grapes. Also, it helps to use chilled, filtered water. Making it cold makes it taste better and stay fresh longer. You can refrigerate up to 24 hours, but I like to drink it when it's at its most fresh. Makes 1 Serving 3 large kale leaves, chopped 2 bananas-very ripe, frozen or fresh 1 fleshy fruit chopped (apricot, peach, mango, pear, etc), frozen or fresh 1/4c flax seeds 1 tsp whole milk thistle seeds   Enough filtered water to make it as liquid as you like Put flax and milk thistle in blender. Blend until powder-like. Add one cup of water and continue blending. Add fruits and vegetables, then slowly add additional water while blending. Blend until liquefied, or until smoothie has reached desired consistency. What we eat and how we look are closely linked.  We are what we eat!  Smooth, soft, skin, for example, is an indicator of radiant health that starts with nutrition and works it's way out to create our external beauty.  The state of our hair, eyes, nails, etc are all indicators of our body's wellness.  Through the consumption of more fresh fruits and vegetables in smoothies, soups, and other recipes that use whole foods, we are able to positively affect our looks by revitalizing our health.  Using a Vita-mix streamlines the means to make a healthy diet a reality in our busy lives as it bridges a much-needed divide between our diet and our good looks.  -Dr. Mitra Ray   Do You Have the Guts to Be Beautiful is a book we are featuring on Great Resources![image]Click the book to visit the Great Resources Profile and  purchase today!
