The strawberry and banana smoothie has already become rather famous amongst those who are passionate about weight loss and healthy living, but the question is: apart from making it more delicious, how about making it even healthier? You can easily reinvent this classic smoothie by adding some kale, spinach or any other dark leafy green to it. Spinach may be the best choice in this case – in the end, there is a reason why Popeye was so fond of it, in the cartoons! Rich in iron and very low in calories (less than 20 calories per serving!), spinach is a great choice for those who want to lose weight quickly and healthily, and to get a fit, rock-hard beach body!

As healthy as it may be, the truth is that green smoothies are not the tastiest ones you can find – you can, of course, add sugar or artificial sweetener to it if you want to make your green smoothie more “drinkable”, but why not add some fruits instead? Sugar is known to be an “empty calorie” that actually has no nutritional value whatsoever, so why resort to somethin that would actually damage your health, instead of improving it? There are many fruits that are naturally high in sugar and that can add value, taste, flavor and delight to your smoothie, such as bananar, apples or peaches, the latter being a particularly great choice. Check out this fruity green smoothie for more ideas on how you can efficiently combine fruits and dark leafy greens, for the best results!

Perhaps the only disadvantage of smoothies is that they often lack proteins, this is why bodybuilders and professional athletes often choose to enrich their smoothies with protein powders. However, the banana and peanut butter-based green smoothie is totally different from that point of view, as the peanut butter is very rich in proteins and fibers, which make the smoothie a great meal replacement. As healty, filling and nutritious as it may be, this smoothie may not be the best choice for those who want to watch their weight and to get rid of the extra pounds, given the fact that peanut butter tends to be very high in calories.

This is not the best choice for weight watchers, but if you care more about your health than about your weight, then you are definitely in the right place! The reason why the creamy kale and avocado smoothie might not be the best one for you if you want to lose weight is because avocado is known to be extremely high in fats and calories. While it is true that the fats present in avocado are good fats that actually support your cardiovascular health and lower the levels of bad cholesterol, it is still fat that can settle along your waistline. Either way, the sure thing is that this smoothie that contains avocado and kale is a great choice for just about everybody.
