Introduction
Congratulations on beginning this journey for your E-Function Tuneup! I am
so excited that you are here and ready to stiffen up naturally. I want you to
know that food can be your medicine. It is not just a saying. The first time as
a physician I was sure of this fact, I was sitting in on a lecture about ED as
a matter of fact. The physician presenting was sharing a case study. In this
case, a 55-year-old man was being treated by one physician with Viagra and
his naturopathic doctor had him drinking watermelon juice twice a day.

His prescription meds and the active components of watermelon juice

synergistically worked to land him in the emergency room with an erection
that would not quit, or priapism.

This is now an extremely rare case, but what it highlights is the potential to
use food for medicine. Each E-Function smoothie has been designed to use
nutrients that have been clinically shown to improve blood flow, help heal the
endothelium or the lining of blood vessels, increase nitric oxide production,
help your body better use the hormones that are available to increase your
sex drive, to improve stamina, and to improve overall health. Some of the
ingredients like mango, ginger, nutmeg, peaches, pumpkin seeds, basil, and
celery, just to name a few, have also been used for centuries by traditional
cultures to heal sexual function.

Please review these recipes with your physician before you get started.

If you are diabetic, I have listed a few diabetic friendly recipes. It is also
important to note that within these recipes, honey is not just for taste. The
father of western medicine Hippocrates prescribed honey for sexual vigor,
and he made a drink made of milk and honey to invoke sexual ecstasy. Honey
has been connected with sex for centuries. It also has a trace mineral boron
in it that is known to increase nitric oxide, which increases the blood flow
needed for erection. New data even suggests that honey can bring health
benefits to diabetics, but it is important that you consult your physician first.

This is the second edition of my E-Function Smoothie Recipes. In this edition

you will notice that I go in depth about why certain ingredients have been
selected and how they work synergistically with each other. I have included
five additional recipes for you to put into your smoothie rotation. I am excited
because I also give you references to studies and scholarly articles so that
you can share them with your physician. You also know that I am not just
making this stuff up.

4
Each day I get hundreds of emails about how these smoothies have changed
the lives of the people drinking them. Men, just like you, are getting healthy,
coming off of certain meds, gaining energy, and getting stiff again. This
morning even, a 45-year-old gentleman named Royce reached out to thank
me for the birth of his first born son! It literally brought tears to my eyes. I feel
so Blessed to be in the position to help men create life, strength, and vigor
for themselves in a healthy way. When blood flow to your erection improves,
blood flow everywhere improves. I do this for men like Royce, men like my dad,
and men like you.

When you begin the smoothie journey, start by using your smoothie to break
your fast as the first meal of the day. Feel free to add a scoop of your favorite
greens, beet root powder, or even non-soy based protein powder to your
smoothie. Have fun with it. These are supposed to taste good, so play with
the recipes a bit. Rotate your smoothies so that you don’t get stuck. Variety is
the spice of life, and variety helps keep you healthy. Rotate your veggies and
your fruit. Educate yourself on the reason why these recipes help you heal
from within, and never stop.

E-Function Smoothie Recipes are meal replacements. Consider breaking

your fast in the morning with one. I push my patients to practice intermittent
fasting as a way of life. Stop eating early in the evening and start back eating
as late as possible the next day. This gives your body an opportunity to heal
and regenerate. If you make enough in the morning, they can substitute for
up to two meals a day. Make sure you consult your health care provider before
you embark on this journey.

Add water or another liquid of choice to thin the smoothies out to your
taste. The secret to successful smoothie-ing is to be prepared. Shop for your
products over the weekend and be ready to start on Monday.

I am so excited that you are here! I am wishing you all the best on this journey.

Share with me your success stories. I want to hear about your win!

Sincerely,

Rachael Ross M.D., PhD

Getting Started
Step 1:
Pick 3 smoothies to begin with

Step 2:
Schedule a consultation with your health care provider to get their approval

Step 3:
Take your shopping list to get supplies

Step 4:
Push your first meal of the day as late as possible (intermittent fasting). Break
the fast with your E-Function Smoothie. Make your smoothie before you leave
home and put it in a thermos.

Step 5:
Drink your smoothie and eat a handful of nuts or seeds afterwards: consider
pistachios, walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds

Step 6:
Stay hydrated throughout the rest of the day. Drink plenty of water. Keep a
water thermos with you.

Step 7:
Get at least six and a half hours of uninterrupted sleep each night. This is when
the magic happens! If you are waking up more than once a night to urinate,
please know that this is not healthy. You may have some prostate issues that
need to be addressed. Please consult your physician immediately.

Step 8:
Rotate your E-Function Smoothies and focus on two to three different ones a
week.

Frequently Asked
Smoothie Questions
When should I make my smoothie?
Please note that dietary nitrates in green leafy veggies and beets begin to work for most people
within 3-4 hours of ingesting them.

Why should I make smoothies instead of just juicing?

Smoothies require that you chew. Chewing has been scientifically proven to lower the hormone
ghrelin, which stimulates hunger. That means when you check your nutrients you have the
added benefit of feeling full longer. Smoothies also leave valuable fiber behind for your body to
digest. Fiber helps balance the sugar content of the smoothies. Juices are stripped of the fiber
and lead to a quick insulin and blood sugar spike.

Should I eat a meal after the smoothie?

For most people, the smoothie serves as a meal substitute. Each recipe makes about two
servings. Feel free to share with your person or freeze the remaining smoothie for later.

What if I am a diabetic or borderline?

You should of course consult your physician first before trying any of them.

Can my wife or girlfriend drink these smoothies?

These recipes are based on science and experience. The concept of improving flood flow,
repairing the lining of the blood vessels, and increasing stamina is an important part of overall
health whether we are speaking about men or women.

Is it safe to take Viagra or Cialis while I drink these smoothies?

Everyone is different. This is why it is important to discuss the recipes with the physician who
prescribed the medication for you. However, for most men it is safe to do so.

Do I have to buy organic?

Please buy organic if and when it is available. Non-organic beets have more nitric oxide boosting
nitrates than the organic variety.

Can I use frozen veggies and fruit?

Yes! Freshly frozen is fine. As a matter fact, if you blend frozen fruit and vegetables, you may not
need as much ice. When you buy fruit and veggies and you know they aren’t getting used, stick
them in a freezer safe container, and freeze them for your smoothies.
