Shed Off Those Extra Pounds With These Smoothies

When people think of themselves, most of them might think of the things they want to change about themselves. However, there are no easy or natural ways to augment our facial features or bone structures, but you can alter the state of the flesh around those bones. A large portion of weight loss depends on getting the right types of nutrients at the right times and in the proper amounts. This article has a few tips on some fast smoothie-based meals that can help you reach your health goals.

Spinach Flax Protein Smoothie

If you are someone who wants to gain the nutritional benefits of spinach, but you do not particularly enjoy the way that it tastes, then this recipe is for you! Spinach is an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, but it has a bitter taste that can turn some people away from it. The best way to handle this is to put it into a smoothie where the flavor can be easily masked. This wonderful smoothie can give you nearly 30% of your entire days’ worth of vitamin A.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk
• 1 ½ cups of organic baby spinach
• ¼ cup of frozen mango cubes
• ¼ cup of frozen pineapple
• ½ of a frozen banana
• 1 tablespoon of flax meal

Blueberry Grape Smoothie

For some people, the addition of powdered protein is not the most appealing idea. Of course, there are a lot of other ways for you to get protein, but many people find that the direct method such as adding an egg to things boosts fat burning. This is definitely the case with this smoothie. The egg that the smoothie contains will change your fat burning process.

Ingredients:

• 1 scrambled and chilled egg
• 1 banana peeled and frozen
• ½  cup of blueberries
• ½  cup of frozen grapes
• ½ cup of crushed ice
• 1 cup of almond milk (unsweetened would be the best)
• ¼  cup of orange juice
• ¼  teaspoon of ground cinnamon                        

Vanilla Chai Smoothie

Vanilla chai drinks are amazing. The spiced flavors and smells are relaxing and cozy, so this smoothie will experience good vibes after the first sip. However, there are many other amazing things at play with this drink than you can see at a glance. Almonds are potent antioxidants, and they can lower cholesterol in the blood. This helps reduce inflammation, which in turn reduces the risk of cardiac events. This recipe has at least ten grams of protein and is relatively easy to make.

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup of almond milk (unsweetened)
• ¼ cup of chilled fresh chai tea
• ½ scoop of whey protein powder
• ½ of frozen banana
• ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon
• ½ tablespoon of unsalted organic almond butter
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
