When you’re in the mood for something cool, smooth, and sippable, nothing beats buzzing together a few delicious ingredients in your blender. Smoothies can be a quick and simple way to get a serving of fruits, green veggies, nuts, low-fat dairy, and/or plant-based dairy alternatives while on a weight-loss program.
You’ll get all the nutritional perks of whatever foods you toss in, with just one caveat to keep in mind: Research has found that drinking fruits and veggies in pureed form generally isn’t as satisfying as chowing down on solid food. For this reason, many smoothie fans use a mini blender to better measure personal portions.
