8 Things You Should Never Add to Your Smoothie

Fat-free or low-fat flavored yogurt

One of the most common ingredients that people put in their smoothies for an added texture of creaminess is yogurt.

1

Canned fruit

Canned fruit might seem like the fastest, cheapest, and most handy way to add your favorite fruit to a smoothie, but most canned fruits are packed in syrups that add to the total amount of sugar in your smoothie.

2

Chocolate-Hazelnut spread

Hazelnuts are just a nutritious as any other nut, loaded with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and healthy fats.

3

Added sweeteners

You've finished adding in your smoothie ingredients and you feel like incorporating some more sweetness.

4

Sugary fruit juice

Similarly to the reason you may want to avoid flavored yogurt, adding fruit juice is just going to increase the amount of sugar going into your smoothie.

5

Alcohol

Technically, a smoothie with alcohol in it is probably just a daiquiri. Either way, it's best to save boozy frozen fruit drinks for special events and limit how often you drink them.

6

Too much of a good thing

Nut butters, avocados, and coconut oil are healthful smoothie ingredients that give vitamins, minerals, and nutrients.
