DR. FUHRMAN’S GOT GREENS SMOOTHIE RECIPE 

This is Dr. Fuhrman got green smoothie recipe, so there’s NO QUESTION it’s a nutritious powerhouse!

Dr. Joel Fuhrman is an American board-certified family physician who specializes in nutrition-based treatments for obesity and chronic disease.

We absolutely love the creamy rich texture (not to mention satiating healthy fat) the avocado provides.

The pineapple and kiwi and of course banana give Dr. Fuhrman green smoothie such a tropical taste, you will wish you were drinking it on a warm beach somewhere.

Read: LOVE kiwi? Try this whole food juice recipe from my 7-Day Blender Cleanse program!

If kiwi is not in season, we recommend substituting with 1 cup of strawberries and the juice of one lime, which has tons of cleansing qualities as well. Don’t have a Blendtec or Vitamix blender?

Not to fret, check out our tips on making green smoothies in a regular blender.

  1. Is the recipe for Dr Fuhrman’s green smoothie one serving? It’s easy for me to drink it all however I’m wondering if I’m eating too much.

    1. Hi, Melissa! Great question! This smoothie is good for two cups. You’re definitely getting your daily serving of greens and veggies by drinking the entire serving. It’s not a bad thing either. If it’s too much to drink at once, save the other serving for later. Enjoy!

  2. Blender Babes

    Green Smoothies typically are a great option for diabetics. The insoluble fiber in the fruit & leafy greens will slow down the digestion of the natural sugars. You can try omitting some of the fruit and starting with less, and monitoring your blood sugar. Hope that helps! HAPPY BLENDING!
