Healthy Smoothie Recipes with Acai
If you want to spice up your diet, try adding a variety of healthy smoothie recipes with acai juice to your daily routine. By replacing at least one meal (usually breakfast, lunch, or mid-day snack) with a healthy smoothie, you not only keep your diet from going bland but also can lose weight while never feeling deprived.
Plus, if you add acai berry to your healthy smoothie recipes, you will be adding a high concentration of essential nutrients and antioxidants that are necessary for good health and weight loss.
As you may already know, the acai berry just might be one of the most nutritious foods on the planet. Acai berry information shows that it is packed with antioxidants (twice the amount found in blueberries), fiber, protein, calcium, amino acids, essential fatty acids (the Omegas), plant sterols, vitamins, and minerals. While the health benefits of acai have not yet been proven (it’s a pretty recent discovery, at least for anyone outside of Brazil), there are many theories that it may help lower cholesterol, fight free radicals that sometimes lead to disease, and help you lose weight.
You can see why adding a dose of acai to your daily healthy smoothie recipes might be the smartest thing you can do; and very easy too!
Start by finding high quality, freeze-dried, organic acai products such as Mona Vie juice blends or Sambazon’s acai berry powder. Then type “healthy smoothie recipes” in any search engine and see what comes up! Find any recipe that you think sounds good and simply add MonaVie acai berry juice or your acai powder, and enjoy.
For example, here is a sample recipe found on the internet:
1 1/4 cup milk 1 1/4 cup orange juice 1 large mango, seeded and cut up 1 cup blueberries 1 cup ice Blend together in blender
To make this a healthy acai smoothie, simply cut the orange juice to 3/4 cup, and substitute the other 3/4 with Mona Vie juice instead.
Here is another sample recipe:
▪ 2 cups milk ▪ 3 sliced bananas ▪ 1 cup frozen blueberries or strawberries ▪ 1 cup vanilla yogurt
Then, simply add a scoop of Sambazon acai powder to get your daily dose of nutritious acai.
If you’re wondering how to make a smoothie that fits your particular needs, follow these tips:
Low-Fat: For low-fat weight-loss smoothies, use low-fat flavored yogurts. Use ice and fresh fruit instead of frozen fruit, as frozen fruits are often packaged in sugar.
Lactose Intolerant: Substitute milk with soy milk or almond milk. By adding acai you are getting calcium that you miss out on by not consuming milk or cheese on a regular basis.
Vegan: You can easily make vegan smoothies by eliminating milk and yogurt, and only using fruit, ice, and acai. By adding acia berry to your smoothie, you are getting a high concentration of Omega acids, protein, calcium, and other nutrients that are often hard to get enough of on a vegan diet.
There literally is no limit to the variations. Pick a recipe and use it as a guideline; substitute the recommended fruit for whatever fruit you enjoy. Get creative and have fun, and create your own healthy smoothie recipes; just don’t forget to add your acai juice or powder to make it the healthiest smoothie possible.
