Super Green Smoothies
In September 2014, Koraiem (together with Obermeder) released her first e-book, Super Green Smoothies. The e-book contained 30 green smoothie recipes created for weight loss and all round wellbeing. Super Green Smoothies was so successful that in April 2015, Allen and Unwin went on to publish an extended paperback version, containing 60 recipes. The book is now in its 8th reprint and has sold over 70,000 copies. It was a number one bestseller in Australian non-fiction in 2015. Koraiem and Obermeder went on to release their second recipe book 'The Good Life' in April 2016, which includes fast and healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes.
After such success with their 'Super Green Smoothie' book in 2015, Maha and Sally went on to develop a 'Super Green Smoothie 30 Day Starter Challenge'. The challenge requires participants to drink one super green smoothie everyday for 30 days, using the recipes provided. The program drew hundreds of participants and received extremely positive feedback, with many participants claiming they experienced increased energy and weight loss.
The pair have since launched their second program called the ‘Best Body Challenge' in December 2015, which includes a 4-week meal and exercise plan in addition to 30 Super Green Smoothie recipes. With advice from Scott Gooding, director of Scott Gooding Fitness and nutrition expert Fiona Tuck, the challenge is specifically designed help participants lose weight and live a healthier lifestyle.
