Product Description
In search of the perfect human diet, Victoria Boutenko compares the standard American diet with the diet of wild chimpanzees. Chimpanzees share an estimated 99.4% of genes with humans, but their diet is dramatically different from ours. The most glaring difference is that chimpanzees consume significantly more green leaves than humans. Victoria developed a series of greens smoothies that enable anyone to consume the necessary amount of greens in a very palatable way.

I know this sounds quite dramatic, however this book did change life. I lost my cravings for sweets and I gained energy. My digestion and egestion had improved dramately. I have even lost a few pounds (5 lbs).The book was recommended by my brother and now I recommended it to so many people. Drinking puree Kale sounded really gross, however it is quite pleasant. Please give it try, your body will thank you

This is a wonderful book. Intelligent, informative, its a fast & easy read...but you'll want to take in all the knowledge she has to share. One of the most important books i've ever read. Enlightening. I am a 60% raw foodest, and enjoy & value the green smoothies that have become a big part of my diet. Highly recommended!
Great book! June 1, 2008
I read the book and applied it. Plain and simple truth followed by plain and simple preparing of green smoothies.
Three weeks now and the children (13 and 11) ask for it everyday. They can appreciate the changes that their bodies and minds are experiencing.
They also are changing their diets on their own. Small changes but good ones.
I am in awe of the power of green. I though it wouldn't hurt anything just to try it and the benefits have been so worth the small effort.
This book is simple to understand and apply.
I highly recommend it.
 Good Start May 12, 2008
I wasn't sure about the book before I bought it. I did not want a raw book that was transitional and nut based. I was not disappointed. I do green smoothies every morning and this book confirmed the positive health attributes of doing so. There is a lot of easy to understand basic nutritional info. This is a good basic book that should be read by everyone who wants to transition to the 'correct foods' and move away from processed foods.
3 Year Old Eats Kale, Spinach and Parsley! April 29, 2008

This book has truly changed my life and I purchase it for all of my pregnant friends and friends with small children. I was having a lot of difficulty getting my three year old daughter to eat green leafy vegetables. I followed some of the recipes in "Green for Life" and my daughter loved them, me too! I've even gotten her playgroup friends drinking them. Their moms are so grateful! I make these green smoothies every day and you only need the produce you find at the grocery store, how easy is that? I am forever appreciative of this book. It's a quick read with big, easy, life changing ideas.
