I always keep a variety of fresh veggies and frozen fruit around. Between my juicer and blender I make my own green drinks and protein shakes. Depending on the meal or situation, I add protein powder, L-glutamine, spirulina, Udo’s or flax oil, aloe vera and maybe one or two other supplements. Bananas, ginger, lemons, and limes are great additions. Next up: wheatgrass grinder

Anything in a bottle, such as that green drink in the top pic, is pasturized and has very little nutrition, and a whole lot of sugar. This won't do you any good. You must blend your smoothie with FRESH greens, then throw a couple of bananas in it, which will make it sweet, and drinkable, then add more and more nutrition.

My personal smoothie everyday is this:

Water from one young thai coconut
spoon the meat from the coconut and put in blender
FRESH greens of your choice (kale, spinich, etc.)
hemp seeds
dulse
kelp powder
spirulina
msm
bananas
stevia
spoonful of green powder (like berry green)
hemp seed OIL
gel from one aloe vera leaf

just throw as much nutrition into your blender as you can and
add fruits to sweeten. The end.

I recommend reading this book:

Girl, I got so many random ass kitchen appliances, I'm just all out of room to find space for a juicer, even though I REALLY want one. I just make a pitcher of orange juice every couple days with an electric citrus juicer from Bosch. These mofos have the nerve to charge 2,55 Euro for a half a liter of fresh orange juice at the store over here: that's FOUR dollars for a glass orange juice ?! ...I'm creeping towards wanting a juicer so I can get my vitamin on, but lawd, the SPACE issues !

I did just notice, like Imago mentioned, at my juice bar, they DO add either apple or kiwi to the green juice combinations, which sounds kind of yummy,so I'm getting intrigued now
