This is just the beginning. This list doesn’t take into account the many benefits that come with accomplishing something you set your mind to and the power of success.
Why Jodie and I chose this 10-Day Green Smoothie Cleanse:
Basically, we chose this diet over all the others because:
- It’s the healthiest. No gimmicks, no tricks, no drugs, just clean, healthy ingredients.
- Super easy and convenient. No fancy cooking or counting. Just follow the smoothie recipe once a day and you’re done. You get to enjoy it for the whole day! It doesn’t get simpler.
- Lasting affects. Jodie has followed this diet before, and she says it changed the way she tasted and craved food for long afterwards. It naturally resets your cravings.
- Inexpensive. We didn’t want something that would be pricey so that everyone could join in.
- Delicious. Let’s face it, if the smoothies don’t taste good, what are your chances for success? They are naturally delicious and addictive. Imagine being addicted to healthy eating. So exciting!
Convinced it’s worth a try? We hope you will join us, so let’s get started.

I’ve been doing something very similar. I’ve been drinking two smoothies daily. My smoothies consist of spinach, kale, blueberries, strawberries, pineapple, banana, flaxseed, chai seeds, Greek yogurt, and soy milk. Just recently purchased the greatest blender ever the VitaMix blender!!!
Jill, Love to hear what you’ve been doing! The VitaMix has always tempted me…EEK! I just have never wanted to spend that much, but I’m sure it’s fun! My goal for this cleanse is to really force me to try different smoothie recipes, learn, get in the habit of avoiding the “treats” I allow myself and getting a solid healthy start for the New Year. Afterwards I plan on continuing to make smoothies of all kinds, as I love them. I’m a picky eater so it’s a great way for me to get the healthy foods that I don’t normally eat enough of! Thanks for sharing your tips! And thanks so much for reading! Hope to hear from you again. With gratitude, Julie
Thanks for sharing the recipe to the Green Smoothie Cleanse. I plan to try this a.s.a.p.
And now that’s its Saint Pattys day month “March Madness” a green smoothie seems appropriate. After watching your mom tap dance on your live stream, I was so overjoyed buy these woman and their love of life still going strong at their age. It truely gave me the inspiration to be who are and never stop loving what you love and to stay healthy and active as we age. My grandmother who lived till 95 always said to us, I stay busy & I always keep moving because if you sit too long you just get rusty. God bless
Kristine, oh my goodness, I loved your comment. My grandmother was healthy and witty and very active until 92. She used to say the exact same thing “if you sit still too long you get rusty!” haha, thank you for bringing back beautiful memories of my sweet Nan! Enjoy those smoothies…today is the first day of the rest of your life and since each day is a GIFT you need to make it the best day ever! Jodie and I cannot wait to share all the inspiration that is lifting us to new heights of living and fulfillment. Stay tuned…the best is yet to come! (be sure to enter every day by coming all 31 days of March…by then we’ll really be besties!!) added bonus! With love, Julie & Jodie
