Home Made - Fruit and Yogart Smoothy (1 container)

Use plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt or skyr instead of sweetened yogurt, and avoid adding honey, sugar, syrups, or fruit juice.

Make fruit a smaller portion of the smoothie and favor lower-sugar choices such as berries, cherries, apple, pear, peach, or orange.

Add fiber and healthy fat, such as chia seeds, ground flaxseed, hemp seeds, avocado, or a small amount of unsweetened nut butter.

Include a protein source, such as extra Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, silken tofu, or unsweetened protein powder.

Avoid blending the smoothie excessively or drinking it very quickly; sip it slowly and consider having it alongside a protein-rich breakfast.

If possible, eat the fruit and yogurt as a bowl rather than drinking it: chewing and a thicker texture can help slow absorption.
