Overview
Ketogenic Green Smoothies by RD Melissa Petitto is a focused, practical recipe guide for anyone following a low-carb, high-fat lifestyle who wants to add more hydrating greens to their day. Blending nutrition expertise with simple, repeatable blends, this paperback shows how spinach, kale, avocado and coconut oil can come together in keto-friendly drinks that support detox, cleansing and steady energy - without knocking you out of ketosis or leaving you counting carbs at every turn.

About the Book
This compact paperback is built around one clear idea: green smoothies can absolutely fit a ketogenic way of eating, as long as the ingredients are chosen carefully. Registered dietitian Melissa Petitto walks readers through why leafy greens like spinach, kale and cucumber are naturally low in net carbs, then shows how to layer in healthy fats - avocado, nut butters, seeds, coconut oil and full-fat coconut milk - to create smoothies that are satisfying rather than sugary. Rather than treating smoothies as an afterthought, the book positions them as a genuine tool for hitting daily fat and micronutrient targets while keeping carbohydrate intake low.

Recipes are written with keto beginners in mind, with clear ingredient lists, simple blending instructions and notes on how to swap sweeteners for keto-approved alternatives without sacrificing flavour. There's guidance on portioning, on balancing macros across a day of eating, and on using smoothies as a quick breakfast, a post-workout refuel, or a light meal replacement. The detox and cleanse angle is grounded in whole-food nutrition rather than extreme fasting, focusing on nutrient density, hydration and reducing processed ingredients rather than any gimmicky "cleanse" plan. It's a book designed to be used again and again at the kitchen counter, not read once and shelved.
