3. Pre-made smoothiesÂ
Smoothies are an easy way to get both your fruit and vegetables in, but if you buy them from the grocery store or from a shop, they might be packed with extra sugars that won’t do your health any good.
If you read the labels, you will see that one of the main ingredients is fruit puree, which contains a lot of natural sugars, such as fructose. Even though it’s not processed, it’s still a high amount that is not balanced with fiber or protein.
This means that your body can experience a sugar crash, which will make you feel tired a few hours after consuming the smoothie. A fruit shake like this can contain up to 50 grams of sugar per serving size, so be careful how much of those you consume.

You missed it when you did not point out that 99.999% of sports drinks are loaded with sugar, which make them the first thing one should avoid. Next time don’t be afraid to offend the sports drink industry
I think this is a lot hype. Fruits and vegetables are essential for proper nutrition. I will agree, sugar in excess is to be avoided.
Organic Treo. That has been the best drink for me. Tried others for many, many, years. Strawberry flavor. Also, take a nitric oxide pill before a long workout and run. And of course water. For breakfast I eat a banana and peanut butter with a little bit of jelly(apricot or peach) with water. Been doing the peanut butter and banana for over twenty five years. Also drink a few sips of a Carnation Instant Beakfast mixed with non fat milk.
After being in the beverage industry for 35+ years, charcoal filtered tap water is the best! Anything in plastic, pressurized is sterilized with Ozone while being filled and are poisonous for 2 weeks until the ozone leeches out through the plastic. Dasani and Aqua Fina are made this way. Cheapest water I can buy is what I drink!
Premier Protein Shakes have ONE gram of sugar and THIRTY grams of protein, plus tons of vitamins and minerals. Comments, anyone?
My go to drink is Water or green tea.

My favorite beverage is Whole Milk Water… I mix fatty sugar free whole milk with cold water 1 to 32…
The fat from the milk brings satisfaction… The white color makes you feel like you’re drinking something other than water… And, it adds flavor to nice pure water that has no taste… I drink about 4 of these a day, so I consume about a half cup of milk and a gallon of water, at home… Out of the house I carry 2 more gallons of straight water…
Water is the only good beverage…
