[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is she putting that much sugar in a smoothie? It should be mostly protein.[/quote] It's not added sugar, it's the fruit itself. When you blend it you're mainlining all that sugar into your bloodstream. And really, those pretty bowls overflowing with 5 servings of high-sugar fruit aren't much better.[/quote] Your body needs sugar, better from fruit than candy[/quote] Sugar is sugar. And drinking 20oz of pureed fruit is basically like eating a couple of candy bars.[/quote] This can't be serious. [/quote] In one setting can you eat an apple, a mango, pint of raspberries, banana, and a nectarine? Probably not. But you can put that in a bender and it's a 20oz smoothie. :roll: [/quote] That would be a 40 oz smoothie. Not to be consumed in one day. I don’t know anyone that wants an entire apple or an entire mango or an entire pint of raspberries in a smoothie... most add a few pieces of each fruit, not the entire fruit... [/quote]
