Green Smoothie Recipes For Weight Loss
By: Valerie Alston
Introduction
Smoothies are blended drinks usually from fresh fruits and they are called smoothies because once the fresh fruits are blended, they usually have this smooth and thick texture and appearance unlike typical fruit juices. Smoothies are usually considered healthy because they are made from fresh ingredients. They may be blended using fruits most of the time but the truth is they can also be blended with the use of vegetables like green leafy vegetables. Thus, the term Green Smoothies was introduced.
Green smoothies are gaining popularity nowadays because they allow you to consume green leafy vegetables that you cannot tolerate eating whole and this is because veggies that are blended are easily digested. Another advantage of green smoothies is that they are naturally nutrient-packed. Green leafy vegetables are known to be rich in vitamins and minerals that have positive effects to the health such as boosting the immune system, lowering high blood pressure and a lot more. And finally, green smoothies are very potent drinks for weight loss. There are lots of green smoothie recipes you can whip up in order to help you start a green smoothie habit but first, know and understand how these green smoothie recipes can benefit weight loss.
Chapter 1. How Green Smoothies Benefit Weight Loss
Green smoothie recipes are said to be beneficial not only for the health but for losing weight and there are several reasons why:
Green smoothies are fiber-rich. As mentioned, green smoothies contain green leafy vegetables most of the time and these vegetables are said to have high fiber content so when you consume these veggies by turning them into smoothies, you are also going to gain access to the fiber that they contain.
Now, fiber has the ability to give your stomach the full feeling and this allows you to curb your appetite and avoid overeating. Fiber is also good when it comes to making sure digestion is smooth or all the necessary nutrients are absorbed by the body and the wastes are excreted. When all unwanted fats are gotten rid of in combination with the feeling of fullness these smoothies can give, weight loss is guaranteed to be achieved.
Green smoothies contain low calories. When your body consumes foods that have high calories more than the recommended amount of calorie, it increases your risk of gaining weight or not reducing weight effectively. Green leafy vegetables do not contain carbs and therefore they have very low calorie content and this will make it easy for you to manage your calorie intake to not more than what your body needs as well as sufficient enough to keep you going throughout the day or depending on what your health requires.
When your body is taking in only the recommended amount of calories and not more than that, it won’t have a hard time burning these calories to turn into energy so it would be easy for you to lose weight.
Green smoothies contain a lot of health benefits. When you are overweight, you are heightening your risk of acquiring several serious diseases like diabetes, kidney stones, heart attack, etc. But if you are trying to lose weight with the help of green smoothies, you will be successful in preventing these serious diseases and complications from attacking your health, thereby losing weight can be safer.
