[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are they at high risk for diabetes? The thing about milkshakes is the portions I think. Would they go for a tropical fruit smoothie instead?[/quote] A fruit smoothie will have more sugar than a milkshake. [/quote] a fruit smoothie with yogurt provides protein, calcium, plus the benefits of whatever fruit/veggies you add. My kid had one today with strawberries, banana and spinach. I am ok with the sugar from those fruits and the small amount from the almond milk. A milkshake has no nutritional benefit aside from maybe calcium...... [/quote] Milkshake has protein and fat as well. But a fruit smoothie with yogurt is more healthful. [/quote]
