Are Smoothies Good for Losing Weight?

Absolutely! Unlike fruit juice, they retain all the health benefits, fiber, and pulp from fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds and will help keep you full.

What Should I Put in My Smoothie to Lose Weight?

Fruits – grapes and apples (higher in sugar), mangos, melons, citrus fruits and tropical fruits

Berries – blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries are great.

Vegetables – I’d stick to the greens, but you can use any vegetable you want. I especially love carrots!

Seeds/Nuts – pumpkin, sunflower, chia, flax, hemp seeds. Almonds, peanuts, walnuts, pecans, brazil nuts, etc.

Milk – regular milk, almond, oat, coconut milk, etc.

Protein – nuts, seeds, nut butter, cottage cheese, yogurt, milk, protein powder, nut powder, etc.

How Do I Make My Smoothie?

These are so simple to make – just place the ingredients into the blender and whizz away.

One word of warning, these are best blended just before serving as they will start to lose their nutritional value and can separate a little.

You can add more ice if you want it colder/thicker/icier!

Why Smoothies Help You Burn Fat

The body performs better in all of its systems if your diet is providing the nutrition it needs. When you feel more energized, you will move more, use more calories and start to burn stored fat as the body looks for extra fuel sources.

Smoothies will encourage you to drink more, leaving you more hydrated, which can also help with fat loss.

Small, frequent meals are thought to help with fat loss and so using smoothies as meal replacements can help this and prevent you from overeating.

What If I Have a Nut Allergy?

You can replace any peanut butter in these recipes with seed butters. There are so many to choose from now, and they are so tasty and full of excellent nutrition.
