Do you think it is better to use powdered greens in green smoothies as apposed to fresh greens?
VICTORIA: I think that if one remembers to rotate the greens they consume and drink at least one quart of green smoothie per day, they will receive an optimal amount of nutrients. I recommend leaving green powders for the times when green smoothies are not accessible for example, during travels. I do not think that dried greens are nearly as vibrant or nutritious as fresh greens. My daughter Valya recently decided to further explore the theory of dried versus fresh greens with a group of volunteers who were not susceptible to advertisements. It happened that my husband was invited to help out at a horse farm. Valya preformed an experiment by offering six horses the option eating green, professionally dried, high quality hay, (super food) or fresh kale, and grass. Six out of six horses chose the fresh greens over the dry hay.
