0:00 Here’s a kale shake that actually tastes good, even without berries or fruit
0:45 I use frozen organic kale
1:38 Make sure you blend the kale with water first so it doesn’t foam up too much
2:19 Add raw wheatgrass juice powder, and lemon flavor, to sweeten the shake
3:15 If you want to consume this as a meal, you can add coconut oil
4:05 This is a very low-glycemic drink
I want to tell you about making kale shakes without berries or fruit since some people don’t want the carbohydrates those items contain. First, blend the kale. I use the organic frozen kale from Trader Joe’s, and fill the blender about two-thirds full with the frozen kale.
Next, I add water to the same level as the kale, then blend for four minutes. Make sure you use a high-powered blender, or else the kale doesn’t come out smooth. The reason I blend the kale first is that otherwise, it foams up too high if you put in other ingredients before blending it.
Then add the rest of the ingredients, blending briefly after you add each one: one to three teaspoons of lemon juice, which helps prevent kidney stones and calcium deposits. One scoop of raw wheatgrass juice powder, lemon-flavored, which contains stevia and adds some sweetness without the carbs. One teaspoon of electrolyte powder, to get the benefit of its trace minerals and extra potassium.
Be sure to blend only briefly! If you do it too long, the shake will foam and overflow the blender.
If you want to consume this shake as a meal, add one teaspoon of coconut oil. You can add more if you want. This gives you some seriously good fat. I love 100 percent organic, virgin, cold-pressed, and unrefined coconut oil.
There aren’t many carbs in the kale and low in protein. This is a very low-glycemic drink. If you’re on a two-meal per day schedule, you can drink this shake during your eating window, or in the morning when you wake up. What I do is drink half of it with a meal, wait an hour, then drink the rest. I store the shake in mason jars.
This shake is sometimes my entire salad for the day! It doesn’t really matter exactly when you drink it, it’s a matter of how much you can consume with a meal without feeling stuffed. If you need to, break it up into portions and consume a little at a time.

First of all I hate kale!!!! But I decided to make a green shake (not this one yet cause I didn't have all the stuff at home)... I used frozen kale, water, frozen spinich, squeezed a little lemon n there and 3 strawberries!! It was soooo good I couldn't believe it!! Plus the extra I put in the fridge didn't get thicker

[@ablueyedsissy59]

Jessica, I'll have to try that. I bet the water n lemon juice is refreshing. I use spinach as well but add coconut milk, chia seeds, flax seeds, mct oil, college peptide powder and a handful of berries n ice cubes.

[@2theOmega]

Did you have any issues using frozen spinach? I tried that… after a few days my throat was sore and felt like swallowing glass. Basically, it was the oxalate crystals

[@Marychange]

Plz try the thick leave callaloo you won't regret either ( preferably from your garden)

[@bohnestiel]

I like to buy bunches of organic kale (they run $1 each some stores) so that I can inspect it before washing and freezing the kale myself. I’ve found that using less liquid on the first blend makes it finer since the components don’t have the capacity to float away from the blades.I later add more liquid to make it juice like.

[@ambermagnolia216]

I make 2 main smoothies that I alternate between -- one purple and one green. Both have frozen avocado, protein powder and/or collagen powder, coconut/mct oil, stevia, hemp seeds, and chai. If I am doing green, I add kale and spirulina. If I'm doing purple, I add a package of no sugar added frozen acai puree, maqui powder, and sometimes a little cocoa powder. I do this because blues and purples have your anti-aging and beauty nutrients. I usually add it to a bowl and sprinkle dried unsweetened coconut flakes on top for added crunch.

[@Sanjay_v]

My go to green smoothie is kale, carrot, ginger, lime juice with chia seeds, almonds, Greek yogurt and a pinch of salt. So tasty! Vitamix makes it amazing.

I blend my ~120 g kale in a cup of V8 regular tomato juice. I don't care about 7 g sugar in it, that is not a lot but the smoothie is tasty. Also I use a regular immerse blender, it takes about a minute to blend it.

[@photozombies238]

I use baby kale which doesn't seem to cause digestive issues like regular kale. I also use 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk and 1/2 cup water, tastes better. Dr. Berg, get a blendtec -40 seconds.

[@ritalafleur3079]

Photo Zombies i stopped using almond milk due to the test dr. Berg suggested to due on headaches so now i buy coconut milk wich is not from nuts i found out. And i do the same as you minus the milk

[@ritalafleur3079]

Photo Zombies ps i meant to add i use the full grown kale but Costco has otganic veggies, lettuce leaves whole and cut and blended mixes. So thats what i use

[@tigertom53]

I think 4 min is overkill unless you have a cheap blender. vitimix or blendtec will heat it up like soup.. unless there is some reason for that...

[@macchiatoflower]

I think the reason Dr berg recommend 4 mins blending is because Goitrogens is in cruciferous veggies which can inhibit iodine hampering the thyroid

[@eerbatsirk]

Dr. Berg if you add less water and add everything else right away it won't take as long to blend it all up smooth. More water makes it more difficult to blend. I prefer my smoothie savory, like green gaspacho! I add to the greens, lime juice, avocados, green pepper, raw garlic, 1/2 onion, good healthy salt and the whole bunch of cilantro!

[@bellenoire1154]

Krista Zurawski great idea if you don't want sweeteners in it! Thanks a lot dear!

How does yours come out after blending it? I have 2 pretty good blenders (Ninja & Nutribullet Rx) that I used today for this.. I still had pieces of kale that I ended up straining and eating with my eggs 🤢.. not sure if it’s normal or if it shouldn’t be at all leafy ? Thanks

Yolanda Antero I make mine with 1/3# kale and 3/4c milk kefir. I freeze my kale the day before and add it to the blender still frozen, just like Dr Berg is doing in the video.

1:57 ''Just like a teaspoon... or two, or three'' *adds at-least 10 teaspoons of lemon juice

[@dubiouslycrisp]

3:20 Adds a "teaspoon of coconut oil" but really it's a huge chunk that he is balancing on the spoon. It looks a little bigger than even a tablespoon quantity, to me. I think Dr. Berg doesn't know the difference between teaspoon and tablespoon and he means tablespoon every time he says teaspoon. Or he knows the difference but his brain keeps saying the wrong thing. ...Because the amount of lemon juice he added was plausibly 3 tablespoons worth or close to it.

[@sanciopancioahoy]

Thank You Sr. You have opened my eyes. Respect

[@senoraantero2836]

Ok so I’ve been watching closely to videos for the past week regarding Keto.. I decided yesterday to start doing this.. I searched for the electrolyte powders online (since my husband also needs them in his water while Roofing) and seen they had them at GNC. I also purchased wheat grass powder from them too so I could get started right away. I came home and blended my frozen Kale in 2 different blenders. I added freshly squeezed lemon juice and added organic stevia since the wheat grass didn’t have any added flavor, and organic coconut oil... It tasted like grass lol 😆 after staining the chunks of kale and eating the chunks with some eggs.. i remembered to put in the electrolytes in my drink that had a lemon lime flavor... oh my gosh it made a HUGE difference. I was able to drink half of the 6 cup drink and my husband actually didn’t spit it out right away like the first try.. but I came to the conclusion that I’d rather use the same electrolytes and grass powder he uses here in the video.. Because they both had flavoring to make this so much better.. I can’t wait until my shipment comes in!! This is quicker and easier for me since I have twin girls (1yr old) and I don’t have to think of how to incorporate or consume all my veggies in one day

[@debbie.d.a.5689]

I had my FIRST ever Spinach with little bit kale shake and I like it!! One cup water, big big handful of greens, half cup (14 blueberries, and three large slices frozen peach ) and few slices bananas. I did not need any other sweetner or powder ($$$). I am so surprised with the fact that I really like it! I think because I've been sugar free for a month and half , my taste buds are more accepting of less sweet things. I'm ever so pleased!;!!

[@jganun]

Since Dr. Berg said Kale, Parsley, and Beet Leaves (aka. "chard") make the best smoothie, that's the basis of every evening time drink, with other stuff, like radishes, celery, romaine, garlic, broccoli sprouts thrown in. But none of this stuff is good-tasting, although you can get used to it. I find that throwing in a beetroot will not only make it taste good, but, no matter how green it was, turn it purple. Other things to improve the taste: red bell peppers, nutritional yeast, turmeric, fresh ground black peppercorns, and Himalayan Sea Salt. But a big killer of all that bitterness - a tablespoon of organic Ceylon Cinnamon. And I use much less water: I drink it as thick as pea soup: a powerful blender only needs about a half cup of water, maybe a little less, to get started; after that, there's plenty of water in the vegetables themselves.

[@jganun]

I've used as much as two tablespoons-full, but, after all, cinnamon is powdered tree bark (the live, inner part, not the hard outer bark); I don't know if there might be a limit to how much of that one can digest. By the way, every ingredient I mentioned, I buy organic. Making it thick keeps it down to one liter, when I started out, I was using more water, and drinking almost two liters every evening. That's too much!

[@jganun]

Not everyone agrees, but when I say cinnamon, I mean (organic) Ceylon Cinnamon. I notice that Dr. Berg uses Saigon Cinnamon - many say that this has too much coumarin ( an ingredient of rat poison), which the Ceylon variety doesn't have, and shouldn't be eaten in large doses. In fact, in ancient times, Ceylon Cinnamon was the only cinnamon, all the other varieties from Vietnam, Indonesia, China, etc. were given the name Cassia. Unless it says otherwise, grocery store cinnamon is actually cassia.

[@SleeplessinOC]

Cinnamon triggers estrogen production , something undesirable unless you need it

[@californication751]

Dr. Berg, do you have any thoughts on blending vegetables too long and damaging the enzymes in the vegetables? Is that a thing? Thanks for your videos! Always helpful.

[@phillipmcneely8384]

The damage to the enzymes that you are trying to avoid is caused by excessive heat that is caused by blending for a long time. In order to avoid excessive heat, pause the blender and add ice cubes before the sides of the blender start to warm up. The risk of overheating also explains why Dr Berg told us that he freezes the kale (overnight, I imagine)

Hi Dr Berg, I know you're a big fan of kale so I started making a kale shake too but I noticed after 1 day my knees were aching and I stopped the shakes. Any suggestions?

[@orionlottering7349]

He said to add lemon juice to prevent kidney stones and calsium deposits so.... kale smoothie to be drank only 2 to 3 times a week. Its(kale molecules) longworking in your body.

@@flowerpt Thank you, Bill. I was referencing the part about only drinking it 2 to 3 times a week. I did read a recommendation to alternate it and why so I now I understand.

[@steflorenta9020]

What if you have an avocado in the shake instead of coconut oil?

[@aeoncee5586]

would be delicious

What kind of blender does Dr. Berg use? Any cheaper alternatives to a Vitamix would be great, and I would love to know about a good blender to buy that doesn't break my bank.

[@Francesca_Lettuceshreds]

Don't worry doc, my entire kitchen is stained with turmeric powder but it is indeed clean.

[@midnightchannel7759]

I do not get excited about machines - ANY machines. But. I must say the Vitamix blender is the only way to go. I finally bit the bullet, found a good used one on eBay, got it home, set it up, filled it and flicked it "on" and began to turn away to do something else... But I could not! Instead I stopped and starred, mezmerized: quiet, almost a purr, immense power, carefully controlled... Vitamix is the jaguar of the blender kingdom

N it's 500 I'll pass.

[@cfingram2008]

Love my Vitamix and not all models are $500....and you can buy refurbished too . Warranty is long too, often 7 years (refurbished 5 years). You can do a lot more than a smoothie with a Vitamix. I paid a little over $400 for mine, but have been using it daily, sometimes 3 times (family of 6) . You can even make hot soups in some models, and even have a self cleaning function where you just need to add some water and a few drops of dish soap, use the "cleaning" function and it will clean itself (you avoid cutting your fingers on the blades this way!). Anyway, easy to dismiss the Vitamix brand due to high price but when you research it, you will soon understand why it isn't cheap, and worth it !

[@elhirba]

I use the Ninja and it’s perfect and cheaper than the Vitamix, and I add an avocado to make the drink smoother and tastier

I couldn't get the exact products at my healthy shop so I added some strawberries to it. To be honest I thought it would be horrid but it is delicious, differently going to be my new daily thing. Thanks!!!! 😘

Everyday at work I down in one go a litre of my Kale Smoothie made from: 2 handfuls of Kale 1/2 Handful of Purslane. 1 large banana 1 handful of blueberries 3 inches of cucumber (Sliced) 1 teaspoon of Spirulina. 2 teaspoons of Stevia. Fill the rest with purified water.

[@truly3743]

Nice lots of kale tho!! Can I use Maca powder on Keto? If I’m doing IF Omad when would I take my multi vitamins if I don’t eat till dinner? Thank you

[@jjp6756]

You mentioned it doesn’t matted what time of day for consumption but can I have this during my IF hours or only during meal time? I’m currently OMAD on weekdays and 2x on weekends to have meals with my family. Thank you for your response and for all the help. Be well.

[@lindsaydoyle7488]

Could I use barley grass juice powder in place of wheat Grass? And since I actually like to eat kale and a nice big salad, is there a way to make like a dressing using the other ingredients?

[@cherylbusse2262]

Dr Berg: you say that you consume the second half of this an hour after a meal. Does this not make it a snack? But you've advised against snacking. Or would it be okay for in between meals if I don't put the coconut oil in? Thanks in advance for clarifying...

[@SpearChuck777]

What's your opinion of the blenders with the vacuum thing on top? Blending in a vacuum supposed to preserve the result from oxidation. If one throws it down the hatch right away, does it really matter?

[@meridjal]

First thing you should have done is thoroughly clean or, at lease, rinse the new blender jug!

[@CraftyLadyLinda]

I hope you washed that blender before using it. When it comes from the factory it has all sorts of junk on it including machine oil.

[@dlaru1376]

Isabeau Chantal don't got think that switch was just a gimmick, who had a spare blender right there on the counter?

[@CutestDogSisters]

Isabeau Chantal omg, first thing I thought too!

I know why he did that... The blender place gave him money for it... I see what you did there Berg.

I knew I wasnt going to be abke to eat 7-10 cups of veges a day, so every morning I make a Kale smoothie. When I found this video I was surprised to see that so does Dr Berg. I like to "get it all in at once" so my recipe is as follows; 1 large handful of kale (I freeze my greens), 1 large handful of another green, the 2 powders Dr Berg has in his recipe(wheatgrass&electrolyte), 16 ounces filtered water, 1/4 tsp spirulina, 1 T flaxseed oil, 1 tsp Codliver oil, 1 tsp sea Kelp, 1/4 avacado (dont like avacados), 1 tsp apple cider vinegar that I make, 1/4 tsp trace minerals...oh! And a small scoop of Neuro-Mag (through Life Extension. I drink this when I eat my protein and I eat 2 times a day. It actually tastes just fine. No fishy taste.

[@KJ-nv9uz]

I use mct oil instead, and i add that in the beginning and it will stop it from foaming. I still add the powdered ingredients after I blend everything down though.

[@thelightofthebodyispineal7137]

This is perfect! You such beautiful, humane doctor! I Love you Dr. Berg! Thank you so much!

So we can drink this outside of the meal? I’m so full after my meal to even drink it. Would that spike the insulin though? If I drink an hour after meal
