10 SMOOTHIE MISTAKES THAT ARE CAUSING YOU TO GAIN WEIGHT

[@AnnaSmith-b9p]

The fact that nobody talks about the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, speaks volumes about how people are stuck in a trance

1. Don’t use fruit juice as a base 1:00 2. Don’t use too much protein 1:45 3. Kale causes bloating and can be made for smoothies in a healthier way 3:00 4. Not using enough fat 3:53 5. Using too much fruit 4:30 6. Not getting any variety 5:00 7. You’re not adding any spices 5:45 8. Using bad nut butters 6:35 9. Don’t original mills mylks 7:20 10.

[@sennaschultz1599]

Your welcome- 1- Don’t use fruit juice base, instead use an unsweetened nut milk base. 2- Don’t use too much protein, use one serving recommendation on a good quality protein. 3- Don’t add Raw kale to your smoothies. It causes bloating and digestion issues. (if you want to use kale in your smoothies then steam and freeze for later) 4- Fats are important and should be included in your smoothie. 5- While you should include some fruit, too much can cause increased insulin. 6- Have varieties! Alternate fats, proteins, fibers and more. 7- Include spices in your smoothie. Cinnamon can reduce insulin and there are many spices that are anti-inflammatory. 8- Make sure your nut butters don’t have extra ingredients like sugar. 9- Make sure you are getting unsweetened nut milks. 10- You don’t need to keep smoothies low calorie. Having a good balanced smoothie can limit snacking throughout the day.

Raw kale is hard to digest but blending it definitely helps. Fruit sugar is an energy source. Big difference between store bought oj and fresh squeezed. Put fresh juice in your smoothies. My favorite is to do nutmilk base with squeeze of lemon or orange for taste.

Thanks for the video! It was interesting to listen to your thoughts on protein in smoothies. It would be awesome if you can do a video on what is the right amount of protein we should have in a day. There is a lot of mixed research I have found on that subject. Your thoughts would be appreciated. 😊

[@kevinvisscher7815]

The war on bananas and proteine. I lost 44lbs in 2,5 months taking 3 milk proteine shakes with a total of 2 bananas and 1 apple a day and fill each proteine shake with a handful of berries. Everything can make you fat, people gotta learn they have to work out. Just a different diet isn't helping you if you sit on your ass all day.

[@jamiehershon]

That's not true. Most of weight loss is from dieting alone. People shouldn't view exercise as a way to lose weight. You should do it because it's good to do, but diet is the key.

[@voltagefrogmatthias2375]

My advice as an athlete: Adjust the ingredients/macros (carbs, protein, and fats) to YOUR OWN dietary plan. => I'm an athlete and fuel my body with lots of carbs and protein. A pre-workout smoothie can have lots of short-chain carbs (sugar) to boost performance. Generally, long-chained carbs (oatmeal, rice, quinoa, pasta) are preferable throughout the day and a few carefully selected fat sources. Others found a low-carb diet to work well for them. Adjust your food intake to what works best FOR YOUR own BODY and lifestyle. Do not simply copy what others says works for them. If you want to loose weight it all boils down to a single factor: the caloric deficit (independent of energy source). That's all. You could even consume sugar exclusively and loose weight given you have a caloric deficit. Really no rocket science here :) Healthy energy sources are important for other reasons than weight loss but that's another topic. Be healthy and happy, Matt

[@LizzieBee29]

[@julietdaniel5689]

Natural sugars have been proven to be beneficial rather than "evil" or "bad". So you can add a whole banana and some strawberries to your smoothie and not worry about it. It's free sugar like table sugar which is the one causing the extreme insulin rise. And you should add regular milk (if not vegan) for some extra protein if not using protein powders. My favorite post-workout smoothie is 1/2 banana, coffee, 1 scoop protein powder, PB2, and a little regular PB. Around 30g protein. It's also been proven that your body can't digest more than 30-35g of protein at one time, so if you're like me and workout daily and like your protein shakes, try 1 scoop powder + milk 30 minutes before a workout, and a smoothie afterward. You also need carbs to help replenish what you lost (aka fruit). All this info comes from Abbey Sharp's videos, who is a registered dietician. Very informative, highly recommend you check out a lot of her debunking videos.

When you pulverize raw kale in a blender/Nutribullet/etc., is it still really hard to break down? Seems like it's great at keeping you regular.

[@1houndgal]

It doesn't bother me when I ninja 1 5 cups into my fruity protein with healthy fats smoothie. I can swim 4 or 5 hrs on my smoothie. I think every body is different as to how they metabolize foods. There is no one correct and perfect diet that fits all bodies.

[@jamiehershon]

I often use kale in my Nutribullet since it lasts longer than spinach. Like Autumn said, it's one to consider not using if you have things like ibs and crohn's. my father for instance has a hard time with kale and broccoli. too rough for him.

[@StarOnTheWater]

I find that smoothies just ferment in my gut if I add any fat or protein or whole grain (like oats). If it's just fruit and vegetables my body can digest it better.

[@Upasana.2410]

Hey, if u wanna add oats ( for protien n fiber factor)...... Try soaking oats first in water after rinsing them till the water become translucent to transparent...... Thn after 15-20 mins or evn overnight, use tht oats.... Tht will not cause indigestion, because the acid reduces in the oats.... And also nutrition are well absorbed... 😊

[@1houndgal]

Try adding probiotics like low or no carb yogurt with live cultures, or kefir into your smoothie. And try ginger also. Both helps with gas.

[@powerfoods4890]

Only One remark. The explaination on the fruit was too generic, raspberries are not bananas or dates and also fiber content helps counter sugar spike. Our programs provide through smoothies Over 1 kg of fruit a day, besides many other ingredients, and our customers lose Over 3kgs in 5 days, satieted with no glucose spikes proven by diabetic customers that are able to drink our mixtures with no side effects. Other than that amazing vídeo....very rare to find such good info. Keep up the great work. Cheers

2:20 is the info I think most gym goers needed to hear

[@Matrim42]

I go light on bananas because they’re so sweet, but I tend to go heavy on berries for their nutritional value and the higher fiber content. It also lets me hide more greens in it as I’m not a big fan of the taste of green smoothies, berries are generally strong tasting enough to mask most any mild vegetable taste.

[@dreamweaver1832]

True, some fruits are higher in sugars. I stay with a few berries.

[@bobibob2735]

Is it healthy to drink only a smoothie for breakfast every day ?🤔

[@AnTran-rc8yj]

It’s a healthy to meet your daily veggies and fruits consumption, if this question is regarding the timing of drinking the smoothie then that depends on your schedule and goals, not your health. I fact it is absolutely healthy to skip breakfast and eat nothing at all as long as your somehow get all your nutritional needs later in the days. I know we have been taught that breakfast is the most important but that theory has been debunked by the science community. For millions of years our ancestors didn’t wake up with a plate of food on the table, and evolution has shaped our metabolism that way. Eating breakfast is healthy is something the food industry came up with to get people to eat more and the result of this is the rise of diabetes and obesity.

[@1houndgal]

Not much nutrition there honestly. 1 cup of strawberries or more fruit within reason would be better. More yogurt for protein, 3 oz is not a serving. Same goes for milk. But you are not adding enough protein to make it a "protein " smoothie. Protein shake like premier protein ups protein by 20 to 30 grams per serving. Add some healthy fats also for satiety and for hormones and antibodies. Advocado is great, with lots of good nutrition and fiber. Fat is important in the diet, just keep it healthy fats and not too much or too little.
