Smoothies are a quick, convenient, and flavorful way to get plenty of nutrients, especially if you’re on the go or short on time. You may think you’re limited when it comes to smoothies on keto (many regular smoothies are high in fruit sugars), but you’ll be happy to know there are plenty of low-carb smoothie recipes to choose from. Smoothies can help you feel full and prevent dehydration while hushing cravings. Keto-compliant fruits and veggies are also typically rich in fiber, which has been associated with positive health outcomes.
Smoothies can be a nutritious way to start your day, a satisfying snack, or even a sweet or chocolatey treat for dessert. Whether you’re a chocolate lover, a berry fanatic, or partial to the healthy boost of a green smoothie, the talented Ketogenic.com recipe creators have an array of smoothie recipes for you.
