[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, fruit is good for you. Whole fruit is good for you. I'm not sure smoothies are as good, but I suppose it's better than eating processed food.[/quote] Smoothies are fine--blending it retains the whole fruit. Juice is what's bad because it loses the fiber. A lot of those smoothie chains like Smoothie King use juice and that's why they aren't healthy. Homemade is great. [/quote] This is true, a smoothie retains the fiber - BUT, it does break the fiber down into much smaller pieces and that does effect how the fiber and the fructose are processed by the gut and used by the body. A smoothie is a nice treat but it is preferable for gut and liver health to take most of your fruit in whole form.[/quote] No, it really doesn’t affect the fiber in a way that makes it less useful for the body.
