3) Don’t overload your smoothie with high-sugar fruits. Yes, fruit is filled with healthy antioxidants and vitamins. And yes, fruit makes smoothies taste good! But it’s easy to get carried away and add too many high-sugar fruits in your smoothie. Even with the inclusion of healthy fats and proteins to help balance the sugars, too many high-sugar fruits will cause your insulin to spike much like it would if you ate a candy bar. This will cause you to feel hungry and tired shortly after eating your smoothie (as your blood sugar begins to fall again), and will lead to blood sugar disregulation in the long-run. So instead of using a banana, use an avocado to add creaminess (and healthy fats!) to your smoothie. Or instead of mango, use raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries (all low in sugar). And don’t forget your greens!

3. Add some extra fibre
A great way to steady sugar release (which means less pressure on your insulin response and more sustained energy) is to add extra fibre to your smoothie.
You could add ground flax seed, a tablespoon of oats, a big handful of greens or even some cucumber.
I know the latter sounds strange but a banana, strawberry and cucumber smoothie is oddly good!!
