Pro Tips for Diabetic Smoothies
· Always include protein – at least 10–15g per smoothie.
· Don’t drink on an empty stomach – have it with a meal or small snack.
· Limit fruit to ½ cup total – focus on berries, green apple, or less‑ripe banana.
· Avoid dates, honey, maple syrup, fruit juice, and sweetened yogurt.
· Eat, don’t drink – chewing is better for glucose control, but if you blend, drink slowly over 15–20 minutes.
