[quote=Anonymous]OP - an earlier poster linked to a NYT article that addressed your question. Basically, eating fruit is better because chewing the fiber acts as a net to slow the rush of blood sugar. In a smoothie, the fiber is pulverized so doesn’t have the same benefit. There are probably other differences that are not yet known or quantified. Even if you’re not looking to lose weight, spiking up your blood sugar like that may have other adverse effects down the road. Adding the avocado probably helps tho as combing fat with fruit has generally been shown to lower the spike in blood sugar and insulin production. [/quote]
