5 Popular Green Drink Mixes

Stacy J.  Day
According to Dr. Oz, the famous cardiologist with his own television show, drinking a "green" drink in the morning is a great way to jump start your day by filling the body with nutrients which provide energy, rev up the metabolism for fat burning, and also increase digestion. Although Dr. Oz has shared his own recipe with the public, which includes spinach, cucumbers, apples, and more, not everyone has the time to gather up all these fruits and vegetables every morning in order to make this healthy concoction. You have the option of purchasing your own green drink mix and simply mixing it with water or juice in order to receive equal nutrition but without the hassle. The following green drink mixes are some of the absolute best that you can choose.
