Food Facts: Smoothies
Many restaurants try to advertise their smoothies as a healthy option, but that's not always the case. Most smoothies have more than 50g of sugar and are about 300-600 calories! Most of them also use full fat milk or artificial fruit juice. So what's the best option? Make your own! You can control what you put into your smoothie. Choose your favorite fruits and add greek yogurt or almond milk for some extra flavor!
