How to choose and combine your fruits and vegetables for smoothies.

Buy fruits and vegetables in season.

Fruit or vegetable smoothies for weight loss taste better when they are fresh. Therefore it is good to buy them when they are in season. Besides, fruits in season are cheaper and cleaner. You are likely to get most of the nutrients your body needs from them when they are in season.

Check the color combination.

Get different nutrients from different fruits and vegetables. Try a combination of different fruits that appeal to your taste and sight.

Adding different colors and taste combinations in your smoothies can motivate you to start and continue in your smoothie challenge. Have a rainbow of colors in your glass.

Find the right balance between fruits, vegetables, and liquid. More importantly, do not make your smoothie too runny or too thick.

Try to get the right ratio for combining your smoothie ingredients. It is healthy to incorporate most of the vital nutrients needed such as proteins, fruits, and fats in the right proportion. Try to get the ratios right from the smoothie ingredients.

Organize your smoothie ingredients in layers

Adding your smoothie ingredients haphazardly in the blender may not yield the best smoothie consistency. You will likely find large chunks of vegetables or fruits in your drink, and you won’t like it.

You need to order your ingredients in layers to get the right smoothie consistency.

For instance, put hard parts first at the bottom of the blender where they’ll be closer to the blades after that add the other ingredients. You can then follow with your liquid and a sweetener.

Buy organic fruits and vegetables if you can

Organic fruits and vegetables are healthier than conventionally grown ones because they are free of pesticides and are grown without artificial fertilizers.

Organic plants have higher antioxidant levels compared to the conventional ones and therefore taste better.
