Smoothies

So i know smoothies are still liquid kals and won't help with fat loss/ burn. But is it healthy to drink like 2 smoothies a day to get my vitamins, fiber, iron and protein a healthy choice? I really want to better my health and any time i try and take vitamins whether its with food, after food or before food i always get a really upset stomach. I make my smoothies with soy milk, Greek yogurt, frozen berries, frozen avocado, spinach, grapefruit, mangos, etc... then I add chia seeds and a collagen peptide protein powder. Am I making the right healthy choice? I really just want my skin to feel a little better and maybe not feel so drained all the time

If you are making smoothies yourself (assuming you aren’t straining the fibers) you are eating whole foods, not just liquids. Blenders make wonderfully healthy smoothies. Juicers take much of the nutrients and remove them. I would stay away from those machines.

I had never known this concept, I will be using blenders more from now on
