FAQs

1. Are fruit smoothies healthy?

Fruit smoothies are super healthy. Fruit smoothies become even healthier if you add some protein and fiber to keep your stomach full longer.

2. Are frozen berries good for smoothies?

Frozen fruits are best while making smoothies. I always choose frozen fruit over fresh ones. They blend up thicker and keep the smoothie cold and slushy due to which you don’t have to add ice that may water it down and ruin it's natural taste.
