Give Yourself A Health Boost; The Best Ingredients To Add To Your Morning Smoothie

Natural Almond Or Peanut Butter

Nuts are one of the healthiest ways to incorporate a good dose of protein into a smoothie. However, unless individuals like a bit of crunch in their smoothies, whole or chopped nuts are not the easiest to blend. Instead, they should reach for some natural almond or peanut butter (and make sure it’s a creamy version.) Almonds and peanuts are packed with calcium and magnesium, and their makeup of fiber and healthy fats will ensure individuals will feel fuller for longer. When choosing a nut butter, it’s best to read the labels. Some brands load their nut butters with sugar, hydrogenated oils, and preservatives. For the healthiest choice, individuals will want to see the ingredients list on the label is very short. Natural nut butters really only need nuts, salt, and maybe a touch of honey. Any other ingredients will just complicate and weigh down a smoothie unnecessarily.
