Community PageHi rawforhealth, Yes that’s right. I prefer smoothies because they are more filling, have less cleanup, less waste, and mostly, honestly, because they’re cheaper. It takes far more produce to make juice. So a cup of juice vs a cup of smoothie has more vitamins and minerals because it takes more produce to make the same amount minus the fiber.
What type of fruit and how much can you have? It does help to add fruit to a green smoothie to make it more palatable. Or can you use a stevia or erythritol product to help make it sweeter (zero glycemic index)? Adding a fat to your smoothie will be more filling too, I use 2 Tbs almond or cashew butter.
Otherwise I would recommend making it more like a savory soup with garlic and ginger. Spinach is good for smoothies because the flavor is quite mild.
