Everyone has heard of or tried a smoothie “diet”. I thought
I would take time to talk about this trend and also give my suggestions.
I believe smoothies are a great way to get lots of nutrients
and vitamins. I would not go longer than two days with just smoothies; your
body needs more than just that. I personally like to recommend one meal replacement
a day with a smoothie. I think it also needs to be said that you don’t need any
fancy equipment to make one just throw everything in your regular blended and
go.
When making smoothies there are four things that I always
put in mine
-A green: spinach, kale, spring mix
-Flax Seed
- Fruits (whatever kind you like)
-Liquid (water or sugar free cranberry juice)
One of my favorite kinds of smoothie has a cup of spinach,
half a cup of both strawberry and mango, tablespoon of flax seed and enough
water to make it the consistency I like. Smoothies are very personal to your
taste. So the best thing to do is get ingredients you like and try them out to
find out the combinations you like. I
learned that I do not like blueberries in my smoothies, but my roommate really
likes them in hers. Smoothies are great to experiment with. I hope you will try
some out and enjoy mixing and matching!
Live Healthy,
Nadia
