SUMMER SIPS Smarter Smoothies for Balanced Blood Sugar | | Smoothies are the perfect breakfast, snack, or pick-me-up during the day. However, with the wrong ingredients or ratios, they can cause your blood sugar to spike - leaving you fatigued and hungry instead of energized and nourished. Below, we're giving you our favorite formula for smoothies that will help keep your blood sugar stable and energy steady. The short version: Just like a balanced meal, a healthy smoothie needs the right mix: protein, fiber-rich veggies, fruit, and healthy fats. This combo keeps your blood sugar stable and energy steady—all morning long. Our formula for a smarter smoothie: - Size matters: 8-12 ounces is a good target size for satiety without overdoing it.
- Start with a healthy base: Water or unsweetened plant milks (such as almond or soy) make great options. You can use dairy milk as well, but just be sure to use less fruit to balance out the total amount of sugar.
- Add protein: Protein is key to slowing the speed at which sugar enters the bloodstream, as well as helping you feel full and satiated. Try Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or your favorite protein powder!
- Slightly sweeten: Stick to 1 serving of fruit to avoid too much sugar. One serving is one small banana, a cup of berries, or 1/2 cup of sweeter fruits like mango or pineapple. Frozen berries add a nice texture, and are lower on the glycemic index.
- Sneak in veggies: A handful of spinach is an easy way to add some greens while being nearly tasteless in a smoothie. Other easy ideas are kale, pumpkin, beets, or cucumbers.
- Add a healthy fat: Fats help the body absorb nutrients from fruits and vegetables, and also slows down the speed at which sugar enters your bloodstream. 1-2 tablespoons of chia seeds, avocado, or nut butter are great options.
- Flavor it up, naturally: Cinnamon, vanilla, mint, or cocoa powder (no added sugar!)
- Boost your smoothie: Add a gel pack of HealthyCell™ to support your health at the cellular level. Add a gel pack of Glucose Support to increase the blood sugar balancing benefits of your smoothie!
Follow this smoothie formula for a refreshing, balancing treat or meal any time of day - all summer long! | | | | |
