Ditch the Green Smoothies

- Many people might not have the time or the inclination to cook their vegetables, so they throw kale and spinach, two “health foods” into a blender with some other ingredients to make what is known as a “green smoothie,” which is quite popular nowadays. In addition, many people think that cooking the food “kills” many of the nutrients in the food, so it is best to take your vegetables raw.
According to the ancient rishis of India who cognized India - this is definitely not the case! In fact, even without microscopes they were able to cognize at a deep level of consciousness that many vegetables have problems associated with them and these problems would go away if you cook them.
How prescient they were! We now know that kale contains two compounds which can depress the thyroid gland function and both spinach and kale contain oxalates which pull the calcium out of the body depriving the bones of their much needed source of nourishment and can also increase the likelihood of developing kidney stones as well. But these troublesome compounds in spinach and kale are reduced up to 80% by the cooking process, making them safe to consume.
The video discusses other reasons why the cold smoothies may disrupt your health - some of the ingredients which go into these smoothies can clog the body’s delicate system of physical channels, channels which carry bodily fluids such as digestive juices, lymphatic fluids, toxins, urine and sweat, for example. The pea and whey proteins sometimes used are too clogging to this delicate network of physical channels, as are bananas, cold coconut milk and avocados. Plus the frozen fruits added to the mixture can put out your digestive fire, making it very difficult to burn up the food.
A recipe is given, known as “Green Protein” which was developed by my teacher and mentor, Vaidya Rama Kant Mishra, which involves cooking the spinach, kale or other greens and adding fats such as olive oil and ghee, as well as spices and blending them together to make a much more nourishing alternative to the cold clogging smoothies which will be easily absorbed into the cells and not disrupt one’s channels or digestive fire.
And the opposite is true: cooking the vegetables actually softens the vegetable fibers so that even if some nutrients are destroyed in the cooking process, the net result is that even more nutrients will be taken up into the cells, especially if the recipe contains fats which carry the nutrients across the cell wall and spices which stoke the digestive fire, increasing the absorption of the nutrients.
So please think twice about making these cold channel-clogging smoothies which increase your risk of kidney stones and can weaken your bones. There is a better alternative out there which is much more nourishing and easier on your digestive processes. And it takes only about 5 minutes to make! About the same amount of time as the cold smoothie.

another good clearing up of a misconceived trend. Thanks Dr. Teitelbaum
This is her opinion, nothing more. Next week will reveal new advice.
Dr. Teitelbaum is not presenting “her opinion”, she is bringing forth long term knowledge (5000 years old) in the Vedas. She and many of us have followed Shanka Vansya Ayurveda (SVA). It gives precise detailed effects of foods, how to consume, and what foods to avoid.
Raw greens need to be cooked for us to assimilate their nutrients. When we don’t, they strip us of valuable nutrients and minerals.
Again this is not conjecture or ruminations, but specifically indicated in the Vedas.
Our problem nowadays is how much advice and opinion is issued, almost daily, without long term and thorough research.
This is not her opinion. This information has come through years of training in a medical system that is ancient and now is being backed up by scientific scrutiny.
It’s your own opinion that needs to be scrutinised. In my opinion……😂
@@OceanFrontVilla3 Oxalates are a real concern. The takeaway is to cook your food to improve digestion and absorption.
Yup...i spent YEARS drinking green smoothies got really sick - stroke like...they did loads of tests and found my thyroid function was dangerously low...also i was anaemic even though i was drinking a blender full of greens a day... now i ONLY eat greens cooked
Thank you for posting your comment, I’ve been doing them daily and sometimes twice a day from May 1st this yr after learning of Dr Brooke Goldner’s protocol for reversing autoimmune diseases etc.
And I am coming to the conclusion that this must not be for my body. Since starting I have a new area on molars of receding gum line (sensitive trench along gum line), and front teeth are going translucent!! 😮
I have never had a calcium or bone problem in my life, in fact that was the one body part that’s very strong & solid. Recently I’ve been researching this very topic if green smoothies are actually harmful to bones/health but there’s more info backing it. But yes, we all need to listen to our bodies.
The 1st 2 wks I detoxed like crazy cuz I cut all animal based foods and only followed Dr Goldners protocol strictly (making my own oil free salad dressings + two big green smoothies per day).
My gut detoxed my hormones detoxed it was a ROUGH 2 wks, but now after a couple months I’m suspecting these smoothies are having more of a negative effect on my health. Nails are stronger than they have ever been in my life but my hair is shedding like crazy and def noticed a softening of bones. I’ll stop and go back to eating cooked greens
@@NotYourAvgJoey oh yes i also had a tooth that kept breaking and breaking (as the dentist was trying to fill it) and several others that were compromised
Brilliant video, many thanks. I recently watched some videos on oxalates and was quite shocked. Ayruveda is brilliant!!! Also, i love your video on magnesium. Many thanks again for taking the time to make these video. Im a nurse, its all so interesting 😊
Thank You, Dr. Teitelbaum! Can't wait to try the recipe. Just ordered some cheese cloth to make paneer. :-)
Two of my best friends had smoothies very often, especially for breakfast. Both were extremely fit athletes, but she got urinary bladder cancer very quickly, and died. He got the same cancer, and then total bone and cartridge degeneration. He's still surviving, but taking chemotherapy, and stem cell injections. I am a witness to the destruction caused by unnatural diets.
I have been boiling, draining, and then freezing my kale for a few years.
Then I just take the cooked frozen kale and throw it into my smoothie.
why not just throw into the bin instead, and cook up a couple of steaks?
Yum, I'm making goat paneer based on your fab recipe book! Shokrun. Thank you Dr. T!!!!
That sounds so good!
I went through a green smoothie phase about five years ago. One day I realized that I just didn't enjoy them, and that was that. Interesting to find out my intuition about the was right.
Great! Instinctively I always thought smoothies were a bad idea. Thank so much!
Oh my goodness, I'll be eating nothing soon. Every food is dangerous.
So many voices!!!!!!!
Do, don't, do, dont, I don't know who to believe anymore.
Exactly!
Smoothies are the only way I manage to eat berries and seeds for breakfast, I'm new to smoothies and thought that at last I had found something unprocessed that I can eat. Is it still ok to eat berry smoothies?
you have to find out what works for you. one thing is sure. ultra processed food is always bad. whole food is far better. don't know if any food is 100% good for you.
Every food is not dangerous.
Seed oils
Processed carbs
Cheap meat, chicken
Farmed seafood are bad
Nobody disputes that.
So base everything around avoiding those options and you will most likely survive
@@CraigMoxey-b1g don't worry, we will
We're not ditching the green drinks, unless we can no longer access organic greens.
I grow mine, then freeze for the use til next crop
Just cook them, rather than juice them raw. All the benefits non of the oxalates
Better grow you own starting now.
Use fresh herbs with berries , banana, cocoa , coconut water in smoothies, top with seeds and nuts.
Please be aware. Do not use banana and blue berries or other berries except strawberries together. They are not compatible with each other and will caus a lot of discomfort and not good for ur gut's health. 🕊️
Which herbs and why?
Why not just enjoy a bowl of fruit? I don't understnand the appeal of smoothies. Too much sugar, for one thing.
Hi Dr Teitelbaum, I have an allergy to oxalic acid (oxalates), where my mast cells over react, I can get hives, and shooting "acid pains" in my body. Why is my body not digesting and excreting this properly? Do you know how to repair this problem? Have you ever had a client with this condition?
Would have been good to get an answer to this.
it's the goitrogens in the greens. some bodies can't handle greens raw. Their body doesn't break them down correctly. Thats why she says in this video to cook them w a fat. also, when we blend things up, we miss the fiber in the food. Chewing on the fiber of the food helps us create digestive enzymes to break down the food. then our body can it digest it correctly👍
@@mariejonah77 Yes, when we blend things up, we miss the fiber in the food. And when we blend fruit, it removes the fiber and turns it into sugar.
Kale is a low oxalates food.
I've been adding a cup of arugula and broccoli sprouts, sometimes beet greens or Swiss chard or kale to my berry smoothies (1 cup raspberries, frozen and some wild blackrries) plus a date or two, for years and my bone denaity is above average for my age. My doctor said its like a person half my age. I hike daily and try to avoid sugar. I take D3 and K2, omega 3 (and more), eat red meat once or twice a month, chicken 1x a week fish 2x/week. Plenty if beans and lentils soaked from dry in water with a Tbsp of apple cider vinegar.. I take minerals also. Im not on drugs, never take shots, age 68. Did not catch C19
My hair is thick and luxurious, unlike this doctor's.
She needs caster oil for her skin and collagen supplementation.
Are you a doctor or a medical expert? We’ve no idea of her age or general health. She could be well into her 70s and while dyed hair w/ the roots showing through may not be the best look, how can we judge her health from this very small video picture.
Don’t judge a book by its cover comes to mind…….
That sounds like a very well balanced diet.
@deva190. Not really.
Cooking does not reduce the oxalate hit in spinache, beet greens, etc enough to make them less dangerous. It's a very small fix on a huge dietary problem.
Complete nonsense what you wrote
@@tomedwards1879didn't Mary Anne say cooking reduced oxalates from 30 to 80%.
Hmmmm, try telling that to Markus rothkrans and Cara brotman, both of whom look pretty freaking fantastic. Also, fully raw Christina
That's what lots of money, cosmetic procedures and spending days only caring for yourself will do. My ex bought the hype and it destroyed her digestion, skin and hair. Plus Markus and Cara look like airbrushed 80s German pop singers. Very cringe
@@urosprosen4369 that's pretty much the response people come up with when they are angry something is working for other people, and they are thriving, and it's obviously not working for you. Might want to work on your hate there...
@@Newmexicobirds I'm very okay with them thriving, but after 10+ years in the health and nutrition field, I'm getting really fed up with various fads that end up damaging people's health. But of course, to each his own.
This makes total sense, thanks. I hate green smoothies, now I'll never feel guilty about it.
Hi Dr. Marianne can we make the green smoothie at night and then refridgerate over night and consume the next morning cold ? Thanks Walt.
What about making smoothies out of powdered greens mixes like alfalfa, morninga, barley greens, wheatgrass juice, etc…?
I use the cooked veggie water for my stews .
O my goodness I was drinking green smoothies every day thank you Dr 😮
Keep drinking your Greens, Because tomorrow someone Else is going to put out a Video and Said Cooked Vegetables Kills all the Nutrients and it's Bad for you.
We have got to start Bracing Ourselves for The ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WORLD, ITS HERE, AND ITS DANGEROUS..
Most of these Videos they are Putting out there, The People Who are Talking are Not Real, Pay Attention,
ITS A DIFFERENT WORLD.

Hi dr, what about lettuce? Can be eaten raw?
What if the greens are dehydrated in power form?
Many of us in the west ate obsessed with extreme methids to "health" and constant detoxification. We have lost our intuition and made health overcomplicated. Ayurveda is very wise and can be adapted to different cultures and countries, as someone in the northern hemisphere needs different nutrition than someone on the southern.
What about powdered greens in smoothies?
Oxalates are only a problem if you have damage to your microbiome from antibiotics. I love my greens, and beetroot too!
Not true.
@@tnprincess888 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8361114/
@@tnprincess888 Oxalobacter formigenes are the bacteria that digest oxalates, they are destroyed by most antibiotics commonly prescribed by doctors, and this is the reason people are having trouble digesting their healthy greens.
@@tnprincess888 Agree
I love your videos. I was a Nutritional Therapist in England, qualifying in 1996. I haven’t heard that avocados put out digestive fire before. This is bad news, as we have a huge tree in our garden. Is there any way to make them more acceptable?
Raw kale would give me so much gas it was uncomfortable
3 years ago I was drinking these "healthy smoothies". After a week, my body was telling me NOT to come close to beets anymore. I'd feel nauseated.
A few years ago I went on a detox, with just smoothies and broth at different times of the day. After a couple of days, the beetroot smoothy made me gag, and I could not continue. If we believe that our body has inbuilt wisdom to warn us of danger, than surely we should take note. What she says makes total sense.
@@gudrunclarke4976 Thanks for the feedback
Thank you for this video. This makes total sense.
I use a masticating juicer (Omega 8006)… I juice a large variety of vegetables including kale and spinach to make juice. I drink about 1 cup per day and I freeze my excess so I never have more than 3 or 4 days supply unfrozen. I also add several limes to my juice concoction to help retard oxidation and to help with the flavor. It is my belief that by releasing the juice from the plants, I am making the nutrients more available to my body.. am I wrong about this?
Thank you Doctor.
What she's saying is quite common. She's saying that these green smoothies are not healthy in certain ways, but in certain ways they are Most likely very healthy.
And what about celery?
What exactly is paneer?
Paneer is like tofu made from milk.
Boil the milk and slowly add lemon juice . Once it's cuddled then remove the water and wash it with clean water then tye it in a cheese cloth and press with heavy weight on it
Once the water is drained it looks like cheese and you can cut it into pieces. Then use it as you wish. I hope it's useful.
Good luck 🙏👍😇🙌🙌🙌🙌
Everyone is different but I have discovered that dairy in my diet brings on uti's-
One tablespoon of olive oil ghee sip on it if hungry..ill oass thanks ..plus what about the large amout of calories in olive oil?
Some of the healthiest, longest living people on the planet, living in the blue zones use lots of olive oil. All calories are not equal.
Kale is low in oxalates. Check your facts.
Realized I had an oxalate overload and it is a game changer. Too much of anything is not good. Too many peanuts and black tea. Moderation is key.
I can’t tolerate Dairy products which is paneer. 😢
Try making paneer with raw milk. Many lactose intolerant people can safely consume raw milk products. Maybe not everyone but very worth giving it a try. 1:01 1:01
I agree. Too much water at a time for good digestion anyway.
So I guess even V-8 is out?
I think something like V8 juice, while tasty and convenient is a pretty highly processed drink. I wouldn’t imagine the nutrients are of a very high amount. In addition the veg used aren’t organic so it comes with a dash of pesticides. 😢
It's better than soda.
Pretty sure water is unacceptable too. I'll just die now...or maybe just eat sugar and enjoy my remaining years.

Hmm.
If Avocado is Bad, Then might as Well we All Drink Poison.
AVOCADO IS THE BEST FOOD FOR YOUR HEART, If we Can't Eat AVOCADO, I don't see the Point of Eating Any Other Food.

Avocados aren’t bad for everyone. Much depends on your constitution and the amounts we eat.
Where can I get these herbs?
An Indian supermarket, the international section at your regular supermarket or Whole Foods supermarket
@@telthatruth7533 Thanx.
I understand this point but many people can heal in different ways. For me personally if you have to cook something to eat it, it's possibly not meant to be eaten. When you cook and depending on the method of cooking you destroy most of the benefits and nutrients of the food
This is a misconception and been disproven - cooked foods have much higher levels of bioavailability of their nutrition. Technically their nutrition decreases slightly when cooked, but when raw there is little bioavailability the body can absorb
@@EssentialHealthwithAmanda i see for some nutrients maybe but it destroys the life force of the food, that's why I said when trying to heal. For someone with chronic disease you won't see a fast recovery unless you do exclusively raw foods, because that's what allows the body to detox and provide nutrition at the same time
Humans have been cooking their food for almost a million years. It’s part of our evolution.

I'm not getting advice from any person in a white jacket
😂
That’s so ignorant & narrow minded.
I agree that not all doctors are good, especially those stuck in old fashioned mainstream thinking. But to say that all doctors (in white coats) are untrustworthy is very sad. The pharmaceutical paradigm has definitely not moved medicine twords health but there are systems like Ayurveda, TCM and others that have a much more holistic approaches to health. Who will you see when you’re in a bad car accident or you’ve had a serious head injury? But maybe you were just being facetious.
You know how to focus on deep, meaningful issues.
Well, you need to cook certain greens... Also don’t add sugary fruit to smoothies‼️

'Ayurvedic' is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning 'chiropractic'.
Sorry that’s incorrect. She is also a chiropractor but that isn’t the translation for Ayurveda.
Sanskrit āyurvedaḥ, from āyuḥ life, vital power + vedaḥ knowledge
