Quick and easy. Making your own nutrient dense smoothie doesn’t take as long as preparing most meals, giving you more time for others things.
Weight loss: When used as part of a low-fat, low-sugar diet, and vegetable smoothies provide pure nutrients to your cells and bulk from the fiber, which makes you feel full.
Healthy substitute: Smoothies’ fiber and other slow-digesting ingredients (like nuts, seeds, or yogurt) allow them to stay with you longer than coffee, soda, or other drinks.
Meal replacement: If you add small amounts of protein and even some grain to a vegetable smoothie, you can build that drink into a satisfying meal replacement.
Improved digestion: Let your blender “chew” your food and ease the burden on your digestive system while you simultaneously consume plenty of dietary fiber to ensure excellent digestion.
Reduce cravings. We all crave sweets and unhealthy foods from time to time. Reduce those cravings, or better yet, replace what you would normally splurge on with a healthy alternative.
Energy. Supply your body with the right fuel for more energy in the short and long term.
You can pick up an inexpensive blender anywhere. For example, in Amazon.com There are inexpensive blenders like Magic Bullet, Cuisinart Compact Blending/Chopping System, Ninja NJ600 Professional Blender and Oster Counter forms
Next, choose fruits that you love to eat. Use apples, peaches, bananas, pineapple, kiwi, oranges and so on. And Cut the fruits into small pieces and put it in a freezer. Do not however put every ingredient in the freezer.
Vegetables are rich in vitamins and fiber. Vegetable smoothies can have for lunch or dinner. Especially often used celery, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes.
Milk products. There are a lot of calcium and protein. Is better to choose low-fat milk.
Nuts are a source of energy and vegetable protein. A handful of nuts will help to re-energize for a few hours.
Seeds (flax, for example). They are much more useful and needed by the body.
Cereals can also be part of the band, they, first, contain cellulose, secondly, the right types of carbohydrates. You can choose for example, buckwheat, corn, and oats.
There are natural fat burner, which normalize the metabolism and accelerate the fat burning process like cinnamon, ginger, turmeric, cardamom.
Limit the fat amount that you add in your smoothies but you can add healthy fats like coconuts and avocadoes.
