The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Super Smoothies: 50 recipes for Health and Energy':
Reviewer amazon.com wrote:Twin sisters Mary Corpening Barber and Sara Corpening Whiteford have whipped up yet another yummy title with Super Smoothies,
a lusciously illustrated collection of 50 healthy drinks perfect for folks who do not cook but do look after their health. The sisters give
explanations of everything--such as how to peel and cut up all the fruits and vegetables involved--while introducing such
unfamiliar ingredients as wheat-grass juice and calming kava. The easy-to-follow advice includes all sorts of tips, like using only the
ripest seasonal fruit and crushing ice cubes before placing them in the blender. Not only are these smoothies delicious, they're
packed with serious nutrients, all assessed by a registered dietitian. Protein Jolt provides 10 grams of protein from milk, yogurt, and
tofu, plus 717 milligrams of potassium. Hydro-Tonic, designed to send you into a workout full of energy, meets 95 percent of your
daily need for vitamin C and is a mere 112 calories, thanks to its blend of honeydew melon, green grapes, and Gatorade. But these
recipes aren't just for health nuts; kids, moms, and guys will find their drinks of choice here, too. School-Bus Breakfast fortifies
youngsters with six grams of protein and other important nutrients from yogurt, strawberries, and bananas. Bone Builder gives Mom
283 milligrams of calcium, plus needed magnesium, phosphorous, and vitamin D. Men can choose from various virility and libido
builders, while would-be dads can slurp down before intercourse Dr. Shettle's Secret with caffeine, which research shows can
increase the odds of producing a son.
