Focusing your weight-loss efforts on drinks will help you quickly strip away flab in a number of ways. Here’s what makes Zero Belly Smoothies so effective
 
1. They take the stress out of cooking and eating well.
Studies have shown that the more diverse your diet, the more likely you are to experience weight gain. In fact, those who ate the widest range of foods showed a 120 percent greater increase in waist circumference compared with those who had the least diversity. In other words, people who have the best success at weight loss pick a set number of foods and tend to stick to them. Zero Belly Smoothies allow you to do exactly that.
 
2. They crowd out the junk in your diet.
Zero Belly Smoothies come in all different flavors—chocolatey, fruity, green, and even savory—but they all have one thing in common no added sugars. In a 2015 study in Sweden, researchers followed 42,400 men over the course of 12 years. They found that men who consumed at least two servings per day of sweetened beverages had a 23 percent higher risk of heart failure compared with those who did not.
 
3. They battle food allergies and reduce inflammation.
What’s also unique about Zero Belly Smoothies is that they are vegan no milk, no yogurt, no whey protein. Plant-based protein powders are a low-sugar, high-fiber alternative to popular dairy-based supplements. A study by the University of Tampa that compared plant protein with whey found it to be equally as effective at changing body composition and boosting muscle recovery and growth!
 
4. They make you feel fuller longer!
Studies show that high-protein smoothies are highly effective at rushing nutrients to your muscles and that blended fruit drinks, which include all the fiber, will actually keep you fuller longer than fruit juices.

"This is a book I have some mixed feelings about. I bought this book because I had seen a few of the recipes on-line and liked them. I tend to do one protein based smoothie a day post workout, albeit usually with less fruit then these contain. However, the recipes I saw contain less fruit in general then some popular healthy smoothie books on the market, so I felt like it would be worth checking into, despite the title, which unfortunately screams “fad diet.” I've also been making more protein smoothies for our son lately, and since he totally hates the texture of meat (he has sensory issues with it), I humor him pretty much anytime he asks for a smoothie on his speech device, which has lately been 2-3 times a day. But I thought it might be good to slowly expand his smoothie acceptance repertoire.

So this is going to be a longer review, and in case you loose patience with it, I'm going to hit you with one of my criticisms first because it's super important and this is a conversation I would be having with any loved one in my life:

Loosing 16 lbs in 14 days is not safe. *Not*. *Safe*. And the titular promise that following the dietary recommendations in here will do so is part of what gives this book some fad diet earmarks. I come at this from the perspective of having worked in healthcare, and being a woman who is currently in recovery from medication induced liver damage. The very first meeting I had with my GI Dr when this all went down, she told me, because I did have a few pounds I could loose at that time, that for *anybody* (not just people with liver damage), loosing more then 2 pounds a week puts stress on their liver. More then 4 pounds will damage your liver. She had wanted to make sure I was clear on that point because I already had liver damage we were trying to heal and she didn't want me to make it worse. You can actually do the same type of damage that will ultimately lead to fatty liver and cirrhosis by chronic yo-yo and/or crash dieting. So the best medical advice on the subject when it comes to your health is go slow. You'll get the same place in the end, put your systems under less stress, and you'll be more likely to keep the results long term. Unless there is a more serious threat to the patient's life that needs to be addressed, generally medical practitioners avoid encouraging rapid weight loss of this kind.

That being said, there are a mix of things I agree with and disagree with when it comes to the content of this book. I agree with the author that only permanent lifestyle changes are going to achieve long term healthy weight maintenance. And I actually think the recipes are generally nutritionally sound, though I personally would reduce the fruit amounts and up the veg. I roll that way. But this book has some misstatements on a few factual matters and tries to present anecdotal testimonials as strong support for this approach, which I have mixed feelings about.

I know when I'm reviewing books on things that pertain to my son's disabilities, I'm often relying on my own “testimonial” to explain my views. So I get that there is a place for that. But then I also try to be clear that what I do may not work for every child with the same or similar struggles. Testimonials are murky ground, from the scientific perspective. An example would be a woman mentioned who followed this diet plan and lost the weight. Her success was attributed solely to the diet, but then it was also mentioned she did zumba and had made some other changes in her life that, from the scientific perspective, would have also influenced her results. If you really want to demonstrate the efficacy of something, you do controlled studies where you are only looking at the difference of this one factor.

I'm going to go through a few of what I consider to be a few of the misstatements. The author lumps sucralose (Splenda) in with sugars. It is the only artificial sweetener he does that with, the exact reference goes in part: “...crystalline fructose, and sucralose (all forms of sugar).” Sucralose is an artificial sweetener derived from sucrose, and up until studies came out showing that it kills of a bunch of your good gut microbes and that it can damage your liver, it was on the tips of many a physician's tongue when it came to recommending sugar replacements for diabetic patients. I think Sucralose is super bad news and won't consume anything with it, don't get me wrong, but it is an artificial sweetener and should be classed as such for informational purposes.

He cites the number of Americans who have been benefited by his dietary recommendations and then says, “But the war is only partly won. Two out of every three of us still struggles with belly fat...” Technically, obesity rates are still on the rise in this country. He may have hundreds of thousands of people buying his books, but the way he states this makes it seem like his approach is leading to improvements in health that are affecting obesity rates, and there's no evidence that supports that, the very increase in such rates flat out refutes it. There are a few other similar statements in there where he attributes outcomes that aren't actually measurable or evidence based to his diet, and what I would tell you from the medical perspective is that usually, when you see that it should make you view what a person is telling you with a heavy dose of caution.

Some of the recipes have inaccurate calorie and protein counts based on the ingredients listed. For example, his “Great Grape” recipe. I happen to use two of the protein powders he recommends, and this recipe calls for ½ scoop of the protein powder, but lists a protein amount of 30 grams, which would actually only be provided by one of the two protein powders...with the entire scoop, not half. That would be Vega's Vanilla Sport Performance Protein powder (which I totally love!). The calorie count shown would be closer to correct if it included the entire scoop, not half, but the protein would still be off because there is some protein in the flax, but not enough to account make 15 grams of protein from a half scoop into 30, we're talking only 1.5 grams in that 1 TB of flax...there were a couple other recipes I noticed similar problems on, but I'm going to save your eyeballs the full accounting ;)

He says that watercress has a higher amount of nutrients then kale, and you know, it actually doesn't based on what nutritional labels tell you if you google them. He also tells you not to drink smoothies with juice as a base, and I encountered one recipe that had juice listed as an ingredient. It was no sugar added, but no sugar added apple juice still has on average more then 20 grams of sugar per cup and none of the fiber that would help slow down the absorption of those sugars.

I actually could go on, but I don't really want to pound this one into the ground. Because I do think that overall, these are some pretty solid smoothie recipes and that's all I bought it for. Some of them are higher in fruit then I would personally recommend, and for some of them if I make them, I'm totally planning on adding cauliflower to them (in fact, I did that to the peanut butter sandwich one and it worked awesome) because it's a great way of sneaking veg into smoothies that may not taste good with the green stuff (he has smoothies in it that don't have any veg, and I always do veg in my smoothies). And if you medically need to go lower fat on some of the recipes, you can substitute things like PB2 for regular fat peanut butter. You can also add pumpkin to chocolate smoothies and it hides in there very well. So if all you're wanting out of this is some solid, healthier smoothie recipes, I think this could be a good find for you.

My best piece of advice would be that if you need to loose weight and you can afford it or your insurance covers it, go see a registered dietician. Not your physician or medical provider, because as well-intentioned as they are, they don't have to take general nutrition as part of their training, they only need to learn a few dietary guidelines for management of certain chronic diseases. If you can't afford that, google a good base metabolic rate calculator, input your data accurately, don't cut your calories below the number given by that. And otherwise, you know, I think many of the other recommendations he makes in here from the nutritional stand point are solid enough. And I 1000% (that number is intentional) agree with him you should ditch the added sugars for most occasions, because they increase your risk for a rather sizeable list of health problems."

Zero Belly Smoothies Lose up to 16 Pounds in 14 Days and Sip Your Way to A Lean Healthy You! David Zinczenko 9780399178443 Books Reviews

• I've never been one to have to worry about my weight. Five foot tall with an athletic build (with little effort), hovering around 100 lbs for forever years. Then menopause hit. Over the last few years, I gained 20 lbs, most of it in my trouble area - the belly. Or so, it seemed. 120 may not seem overweight to some, but as a small boned/framed, petite lady, it was like being pregnant two times over.
  
  A little over four months ago I started to get a grip on it. Never a fan of diets (in theory), I started working out five times a week. A few Leslie Sansone walking videos three times a week and yoga/stretching on alternating weekdays. Since I've never really had to worry about what I ate, I didn't really make any major changes in my diet. It took me two months to snap out of that denial. So, it took me four months to lose 10 lbs.
  
  I was feeling and looking better, but still wanting to get to my goal weight of 100, which is where I feel most comfortable physically. And my belly was still very much my trouble spot. I started losing momentum on the motivation train. After doing some research, I saw that the Zero Belly Smoothies was coming out in a week. David Zinczenko has been in the belly business for years, so of course, I'd heard of his passion and even though, I've never even had a smoothie, I liked the idea of no focused shopping and eating, AND the possibility of losing up to 16 pounds in 14 days.
  
  It worked. Still working out five times a week (nothing hardcore) and replacing breakfast and dinner with Zero Belly Smoothies - eating pretty much what I wanted, yet sensibly, for lunch and on the weekends, I lost 10 lbs in 10 days, and my belly is as flat as its gonna get.
  
  The smoothies are quick, easy and delicious. My energy level is through the roof with out the jitters that comes with caffeine, and for you other meno's out there, the smoothies seem to alleviate other (struggling to lose weight) menopausal symptoms as well. For me specifically, maybe a coincidence, but I've not had any of the leg cramps from hell or scary heart palpitations I used to get prior to the smoothies.
  
  Highly recommended - give it a try weight warriors!
• This is a book I have some mixed feelings about. I bought this book because I had seen a few of the recipes on-line and liked them. I tend to do one protein based smoothie a day post workout, albeit usually with less fruit then these contain.

• Now that I am in menopause, it doesn't seem like anything is working. Despite my best efforts, the weight on the scale hasn't budged. I walk 3 miles a day four days a week and counted calories. I started this program 11 days ago and have lost 9.8 pounds! Full disclosure - two of these days I cheated and had a restaurant meal at dinner (birthday celebration and going away party for a co-worker). On both days, I did the smoothie for breakfast and a smoothie for lunch. Despite the two cheats, I still have lost weight. I haven't been hungry either and I usually always hungry. The only thing that was time consuming (but worth it) was the meal prep. I went through the book and picked out the smoothies I wanted then prepped everything and froze the individual portions. It makes it easy at breakfast or lunch just to pop them in the Nutribullet and it saves on time and money.
• Can't say the belly fat is disappearing after 1 week, but I have noticeably more energy (especially during my workouts) and the recipes are varied and addictively delicious!!
• this is a good smoothie book, but you need plant protein powder for the smoothies. there are a lot of good smoothies in it
• I like the recipes and the direction, but I bought both zero belly diet and the smoothie book and they are almost the same. Disappointed in that aspect.
