Dear M,
It is recommended that you use 4 cups of greens to make one quart of smoothie. From testimonials I have noticed that people who cured serious illnesses were drinking closer to 2 quarts each day (8 cups of greens). The more greens the better, please note that this is just a guide. It is also suggested that a person has between 5-7 different greens each week. You can mix them in the same smoothie if that suits you more. Here is an article that lists the greens we can use http://greensmoothiesblog.com/green-smoothie-rotate/
Don’t forget the tops of plants like beetroot, you could consider growing your own wheatgrass.

Help!
My husband has leukemia and we have just begun making salad/vegetable cocktail type green smoothies (basically salad ingredients and greens). *No* fruit because he needs to stay away from all sugars at least for the forseeable future — though he can have a small amount of dark berries.

There are only so many greens to work with. How many times a week, or how much in quantity, of spinach, kale, sorrel, parsley are okay to have?

We’ve been mixing in all of these four, only some dandelion greens (very bitter).

Lovely advice. I do add things like maca powder, hemp/flax seed and cacao powder, but not into every smoothie. Totally agree with simple is better.
