Strawberry Shake (1 Medium 16 Fl Oz)

Make the shake smaller and avoid adding sugar, honey, syrups, sweetened protein powders, or fruit juice.

Use unsweetened plain Greek yogurt or unsweetened milk alternatives as the base instead of ice cream or sweetened yogurt.

Keep the strawberries whole or lightly blended, and add chia seeds, ground flaxseed, or nut butter to slow absorption.

Pair the shake with a protein-rich food such as eggs, cottage cheese, or a small handful of almonds rather than drinking it alone.

Drink the shake after a balanced meal containing protein, fiber, and non-starchy vegetables instead of on an empty stomach.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after having the shake, if this is safe for you.
