Whether you don’t like consuming vegetables or you just want to enhance your diet, this fantastic vegetable replacement smoothie can help you get the nutrients you need.
This vegetable substitute is a green product, but it’s not plant-based. It contains spirulina. NASA has researched spirulina and reported that one kilogram of spirulina is nutritionally equivalent to 1000 kilograms of fruits and vegetables.
Benifits of Spirulina
Spirulina is a great source of:
- B vitamins
- Iron
- Vitamin E
- Provitamin A
- Essential fatty acids
- Protein
Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae, and it can convert sunlight to chemical energy. It’s a superfood, and it has even been used for radiation sickness. People also take it to help increase their energy.
Make sure the spirulina you get doesn’t have maltodextrin or soy.

This smoothie is a great enhancement to your diet. But, I still recommend that you consume leafy greens as a normal part of your keto diet.
I started taking a year ago and feel it has greatly assisted my cure from Breast cancer. I actually put it in my coffee with collagen powder. I also take wheat grass in the afternoon. I honestly see the difference in how I look and feel. I really like how it tastes in my coffee..I do add almond milk or organic grass fed creamer with stevia. I look forward to it eveey morning ?
I use to drink Spirulina a lot back in the day. I now have your veggie solution and I didn’t even know that was in there lol. It taste like ice tea to me, I love it.
I have spirulina but in pill form. Lately, I have been juicing purple cabbage with a whole lemon, several days a week! I am told that it is good for the stomach.
