Unlike juices, smoothies do not cause a sharp increase in blood sugar levels due to high fiber content. It creates a feeling of satiety for a long time and gives the cocktail an appetizing density - it can be eaten with a spoon.
All smoothies are very tasty and useful, and they are prepared in just a few minutes.
In a blender, it's easy to disguise leafy vegetables among fruits: you can so easily eat a whole bunch of wholesome spinach, instead of chewing it with melancholy in a salad.
• Green smoothies
In my opinion, the best smoothies in the world. In greenery (even greenhouse), many antioxidants, iron and proteins. It protects against anemia and anemia, normalizes the acid-base balance in the body.
Ingredients: several bunches of greens (a choice of spinach, celery, lettuce, arugula, parsley, dill, coriander), 1 banana, several handfuls of any berries or 1 green apple (pair of kiwi, feijoa).
Recipe: cut all the ingredients (leaves are better to tear) and crush thoroughly in a blender.
Do not: more than five consecutive weeks to use for the cocktail the same greens, say, spinach. In the body can accumulate plant alkaloids of one kind - in a meager amount, these substances strengthen immunity, and in excess become toxic.
Winter time adjustment: add purified fresh ginger to this smoothie. It perfectly fits with the leafy greens and apple, warms, eases the condition with sore throat and runny nose.
• Orange smoothies
Carrots, persimmons, pumpkins and other orange fruits and vegetables are a treasure trove of beta-carotene. In winter, skin and hair are especially needed. To make it work in the body in full force, add to the smoothies useful fats: natural yogurt, almonds and almond milk, walnuts, avocado, coconut milk.
Ingredients: 1 grated carrot, 1 persimmon, 1/2 cup of natural yogurt, a handful of nuts, a little dried apricots.
Recipe: grind in a blender carrots, persimmons, dried apricots and nuts, add yogurt and mix again thoroughly.
Do not: mix the starchy vegetables (pumpkin, carrots, beets, zucchini) with greens - this can provoke flatulence.
The correction for the winter time: cinnamon, cardamom, anise, cloves, cayenne and black pepper in this cocktail will warm and give a spicy flavor.
• Yellow smoothies
If you feel that a cold is approaching, or completely lost heart because of the difficulties of life, immediately load the blender with citrus. A shock dose of vitamins C and A will strengthen the immune system, improve blood circulation, brain function and mood.
Ingredients: 1 orange, 1 small lemon or lime (with zedra), 1 banana, 1/2 mango.
Recipe: cut all ingredients (disassemble into slices) and crush thoroughly in a blender.
Do not: use tangerines and industrial orange juice - they have a lot of sugar and "chemistry."
Correction for winter time: to strengthen the immunostimulating effect of this smoothie will help 1 tsp. Honey.
• Purple smoothies
Useful composition: B vitamins to concentrate better, potassium and magnesium for a strong nervous system and a healthy heart. Plus vitamin C, phosphorus, iron, copper and the best antioxidants - berries.
Ingredients: 1 cup of berries (a choice of strawberries, blueberries, black currants, cranberries, viburnum, cowberry, etc.), a few slices of boiled or baked beets, 1/2 cup of pomegranate juice, 1/2 banana and mango.
Recipe: chop the fruits, berries and beets in the blender, add pomegranate juice and mix again.
It is not necessary: to mix in smoothies more than five varieties of products. This makes digestion difficult. For the same reason, it is better to consider smoothies as a separate food intake. Wait 30-40 minutes before eating something else.
Winter time adjustment: in the summer for smoothies fresh-frozen berries are ideal - no need to add ice. In winter, they should be thawed at room temperature and drained of excess water before being put in a blender.
