Summary: really great!
Review: I actually bought this for my mom about a year ago and she's still whirling up those smoothies. She loves the recipes and has been inspired to try out other concoctions as well. I've tried a few of the drinks and all have been delicious. I really like how they have the different sections like immune booster and the like because it shows you not only a good recipe in that sort of category but also helps you to learn about what foods are particularly helpful in certain ways. Four thumbs up from me and my mom.

Summary: Not Impressed
Review: I was so excited when my Smoothie book came in the mail. To my surprize it wasnt what I expected. Some of the ingredients are exotic. Some of the recipes the average person will NOT make. My suggestion is to go to dannon.com or kraft.com and get their recipes they are practical and best of all FREE!

Summary: The best easy book for a healthy diet we have found. A+
Review: This book is an easy and great way to eat healthy. If the idea of starting your day with a powerhouse of health is a smoothie made with, just for example almonds, soy milk,frozen bannana ( peel prior to freezing) and icecubes or prunes, yogurt, oat bran, flaxseed and frozen strawberries appeal to you than this is the book for you. Unbelievably they taste great. No added sugar. We use this book all the time and we find the recipies delicious and easy to make. The beginnning of the book has info on ingredients, supplements and making exhanges. If it is cranberry season or blueberry season or if you have almonds, oatmeal, oatbran, ,soymilk, yogurt, cashews, all kinds of foods, you will find something delicious to make. We always feel so healthy starting our day with these smoothies that lots could be easily considered a cold smooth meal in a glass. The book is packed with information, no glossy pictures and so easy to use. I have to say I think it is the best way to starting your day with a healthy, delicious diet. Shockingly easy and great tasting. Thank-you author. I toast you to for doing this book and to your and our good heath.

Summary: Tasteful and Healthy Too
Review: This is my favorite smoothie book. I use it at least three times a week. Cherie Calbom's smoothie recipes are chock filled with healty ingredients and are delicious. She prefaces her recipes with chapters full of information on juicing, fruits and vegetables, and other ingredients. Then it's on to a plethora of smoothie creations bound to please every family member. The only reason I do not rate this book 5 stars is the added cost of purchasing a juicer if you desire to get optimal nutritional value from fruit juices and the cost of some of the suggested supplements. It would also be helpful to have access to a natural foods grocery store. That being said, this smoothie book is a must for those seeking tasty, nutitious drinks.

Calbom breaks all the recipes up into groups: Terrific Health & Healing Smoothies, Workout and Bodybuilding Smoothies, No Fat Weight Loss Smoothies...even Pregnancy Smoothies!Plenty of variation in the Drinks for a Nice Variety of Drinks. Even the Kids love these drinks! If you buy only ONE Smoothie Book...Let this be it!

Summary: Psuedoscience instead of recipes
Review: When I sent away for this book, I thought I was going to get simple recipes as well as hints for best using the blender. Instead there were countless references to the healing power of vitamins, herbs, natural foods etc. None of which have any basis in fact. Unless you are into that sort of astrology, I don't recommend this book at all.
