- Adjust sweetness with fruit — no need for added sugar.
- Stay hydrated and combine with whole meals during the day.
Precautions When Drinking Smoothies Daily
While smoothies are a great way to get more fruits and vegetables, here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Watch portion sizes – Too much fruit can lead to high sugar intake, even if it’s natural.
- Balance is key – Try to include healthy fats (avocado, seeds) and protein (yogurt, nuts) for a complete meal.
- Avoid too many raw cruciferous vegetables (like raw kale or broccoli) daily, as they may affect thyroid function in sensitive people.
- Rotate ingredients – Repeating the same recipe every day may cause nutrient imbalances or food sensitivities.
- Digestive sensitivity – Some ingredients (like pineapple, ginger, or citrus) may cause discomfort if you have acid reflux or a sensitive stomach.
- Allergies – Always be cautious if trying a new ingredient; introduce one at a time if you have allergy concerns.
- Use fresh, clean produce – Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly and choose organic when possible.
