Great Taste with Amazing Nutrition

Green smoothies are not only a unique color but they also offer unique health benefits. Made with leafy greens that are loaded with antioxidants and vitamins, green smoothies are an excellent way to enjoy a delicious drink that satisfies hunger and offers maximum nutrition. You may think that turning leafy greens into a smooth, sweet delicious drink can be a bit of a challenge—and it is—for any kitchen appliance other than the Vita-Mix 5200.

The Vita-Mix 5200 has the unique ability to break right through the cell walls of green smoothie ingredients and turn those greens into a smoothie that is, well, “smooth!” Vita-Mix processing releases fabulous flavor, delivers a drink that is amazingly smooth and creamy, and makes the valuable nutrients more bioavailable.

Here’s a quick look at the nutritional benefits of leafy greens: Leafy greens are packed with nutrition. They are a great source of non-dairy calcium, magnesium and Vitamin C. And they contain carotenoids that may help protect against macular degeneration and folate to guard against heart disease and cancer. See more about health benefits below.

As good as greens are, simply chewing them cannot release all that amazing nutrition. When fresh, whole foods are taken down to the cellular level by the Vita-Mix, the nutrients become readily available to nourish your body. Working at a high speed, the Vita-Mix stainless-steel blades and precision-designed container creates green smoothies quickly, keeping oxidation to a minimum. There’s nothing quite like green smoothies made in the Vita-Mix 5200!
