What is a smoothie?
Smoothies – something between a full-fledged dish like bowles and juice. Here are just a blender, with which we prepare smoothies, unlike a juicer, does not separate organic moisture from fiber. Thus, we get all the benefits from fruit and vegetable smoothies, because the crushed fibers remain in the drink. Moreover, in this form, they are easier to digest, help to eliminate toxins and maintain intestinal health, and also saturate much longer than freshly squeezed juices. That is why slimming smoothie is your best friend. True, this is not a snack or an addition to the dish, but a full meal. Judge for yourself: smoothie with oatmeal, strawberry or banana smoothie, vegetable or with additives like spirulina – they all contain enough calories and nutrients to saturate the body for a long time and give you energy.
There are not so many secrets to making a perfect smoothie. First, you need to use greens: mint, parsley, sage, thyme, rosemary, spinach. Leaves and herbs are the most useful ingredient that you just need to add and beat lightly. So you can quickly “absorb” all the benefits of the beam.
Secondly, it is important to choose the ingredients for taste and sweetness and separately for texture. Mango, berries, apple, pear will give excellent juiciness and acidity, and bananas or avocados will give cream smoothness. You can also always add a slice of ginger root, lemon or lime juice.
Thirdly, do not get involved in mixing everything in a row. Fruits or berries plus greens or ginger, or vegetables plus greens are good solutions. Mix dill, broccoli, kiwi and strawberries in one glass is definitely not necessary.
