Overview

Smoothies Promote Weight Loss Smoothies reduce your urge to eat! Homemade fruit smoothies are packed with ingredients proven to keep you full for hours: fiber from whole fruits, soy or whey protein, essential fats, wholesome yogurt, etc. They are a metabolism boosting breakfast! Experts say that your morning meal can play a key role in your weight loss efforts by helping to curb your mid-morning and afternoon appetite. Food choices at breakfast time can determine your blood sugar levels for the rest of the day. A study at the Harvard University* determined blood sugar levels for six hours after meals high in carbohydrate, fat or protein were eaten. In the high-carbohydrate meal, the blood-sugar levels rose rapidly but fell to an extremely low level causing fatigue and inefficiency. However, after the high-protein meal was consumed, the metabolism rose faster and the blood sugar levels stayed high the entire six hours. Similar studies show when there is a combination of carbohydrate, protein and fat, which slow digestion, the sugar is gradually absorbed into the blood. The result is a higher level of energy for many hours and lower fat-making insulin levels. A protein-rich fruit smoothie with added oil or wheat germ, is an excellent combination of carbohydrate, protein and fat.

I. Weight Loss

1. Low Carb Smoothies

* Best Ingredients to Use for Low Carb Smoothie Liquid starters. Water can be used as a base for your low carb smoothie; it has the lowest amount of carbs of all — zero. Then there's milk, yogurt or some type of dairy-free milk substitute such as almond milk, soy milk, rice milk and others. You'll want to avoid using fruit juices as a starter for your low carb smoothie recipes, since they're typically very high in carb counts. Green leafy vegetables are popular ingredients for low carb smoothie recipes. Spinach and kale, for example, have just seven grams of carbs per cup. Fruits. The bulk of the carb content in your low carb smoothies will come from the fruits you add to your smoothie. If you want to keep your carb count low, use the least amount of fruit you can.
