Never leave anything of value in your car. My mom always told me that whatever happens to you in life, just say 'This is what I need" I hate to sound blunt ( I love u guys ) but who's the moron here, for leaving valuables in your car? You still have your life, Thank GOD for that. Desperate people do desperate things. Please let me know in the future what good came out of this, because, trust me , something will, mark my words. By the way, great smoothie! Kevin, I lived in Vegas for 26 yrs and raised 3 beautiful girls there and they all turned out great, But remember it is the GANG and METH capital of the world.

Seems to me that this would completely undo your Bikram workout, but then again, not being a smoothie junkie I just can't relate. Sure looked like you had fun Annmarie. Very sorry to hear that Kevin was not having as much fun. Vegas style smoothie … well all I can say is that I’m glad I don’t live in Vegas!

I like to keep things simple & not overwhelm my digestive system. I think this is way too many ingredients for me too. I like to keep things simple & not overwhelm my digestive system.

No kidding! Way outta my league tho, i'm a poor uni student and im currently cutting back on superfoods (maybe not voluntarily?). I must say that Naomi (above) raised a good point; lots of packaging and i'm also worried about the food miles for superfood (hence, buying local, organic and seasonal produce is the best for the environment). I just googled Ashwagandha since i've never heard of it and one thing that made me giggle was wikipedia telling me that "Ashwagandha in Sanskrit means "horse's smell", probably originating from the odor of its root which resembles that of sweaty horse." Now that's golden! I have a question, that has sorta been passed on from worried family and friends; where can raw vegans get B12 vitamin from? Keep rocking guys! That looks amazing! No kidding!

Some days i do prefer a simple 5 ingredient smoothie. But with a more elaborate calorie dense smoothie, I can sip on that all day from morning until dinner with plenty of energy. This is not the type of smoothie you down in 2 minutes and run out the door....This is the type of smoothie you can ice down, put in a thermos and bring with you to sip from all day. If you work an outdoor type of job(construction, landscaping, etc...) where you don't have easy access to a kitchen or a health food market nearby this is the smoothie you want to have with you! I think she is doing a great job for all RAW foodists everywhere! Lighten up out there people, the only way this (raw)movement is going to expand is if you meet people where THEY are at, simple smoothies have their place and NASA style smoothies have their place, both are RAW tools everyone should have in their "toolbox" including YOU.

There are a lot of amazing, nutrient rich ingredients in this smoothie. It packs an amazing punch and tastes great. Try it before you knock it! Oksana makes this smoothie for us a few times a week and we've enjoyed playing around with combinations for some time. For those of you who say there is too much in this smoothie I suggest you try it and see how you feel. ALWAYS DO WHAT FEELS RIGHT TO YOU. What's good for me may not be good for you. BTW we also add fresh aloe and Irish Sea Moss to the smoothie as well. OMG! Yes, more ingredients! We live life on the edge :p For me this smoothie rocks and gets my busy day rolling to a terrific start. Like anything, all things are good in moderation so we back off the smoothie every couple days and do something different. Give it a try and don't forget to sm:)e! Cheers. Boyfriend Commentary:

AND they are probably my best source for fiber, works like a charm. WAAAAY too many ingredients, 5 or less for me also for smoothies.
