Smoothies: Good Food or Bad Food?

Posted by Matt on June 11th, 2010 at 10:16am

Smoothies are a great way to get fruit and nutrients into your diet. However, when you order a smoothie, don’t think you’re always doing your body well. For example, a 16-ounce Super Yumberry smoothie at Jamba Juice has 48 grams of sugar and a 20-ounce Cranberry Supreme smoothie at Smoothie King has 554 calories. Yowzah!

But it doesn’t have to be this way! Making healthy smoothies at home is a breeze. For better options, try these recipes:

• Paradise Fruit Smoothie
• Triple Berry Smoothie
• Summer Fruit Smoothie

What do you like to include in your smoothies?
