product review: shred emulsifier

I call it the budget friendly Vitamaster. It’s a product endorsed by Dr. Ian Smith and Kimberley Locke. For those that do not know him, he’s a health and wellness psychologist who was the featured nutritionist from the show Celebrity Fit Club. He’s an author and is often a guest on many shows: Dr. Oz, The Doctors, Rachel Ray, etc. If you do not know Kim, she is a former contestant of American Idol "Band of Gold" notoriety and of course Celebrity Fit Club.

Enough plug-ins, here we go!

After a week of struggle with UPS and the delivery, it finally arrived. Opening the box was an adventure. This bad boy is huge! The base is enormous. The contents include: owner’s manual, quick start guide to ‘slim down’, and a recipe book.

If it can make a smoothie, fine and delicate it’s a winner for me! Let’s go! It has a powerful motor housed in the base. It's as loud as a Mack Truck, but it's a beast. I love it so far. I will post more recipes as I continue to learn more about my latest product purchase.
