Protein Smoothie FAQsHow many calories in a high protein smoothie?These high protein smoothies can contain anything from 250 calories to 500! The higher calorie ones are a great option for breakfast, the lower calorie ones make a good drink to up your energy levels and give you a nice boost of protein between meals. However, high-protein smoothie recipes can massively vary in calorie content. Don’t aim for low calorie content, because it’s not realistic (or desirable) to get enough protein with very few calories. Are high protein smoothies good for vegetarians?Yeah! You’re unlikely to find any non-veggie ingredients in a smoothie . Chicken smoothie? No thank you. You’re going to be working with simple ingredients like whole fruit, dairy or non-dairy milk, yogurt, natural peanut butter or almond butter, maybe even some leafy greens! In fact, I would actively recommend these smoothies to vegetarians as they are a great way to up your protein content when meat is off the table. What can I add to my smoothie for more protein?So many things! You can add yogurt, silken tofu, nut butters – these all provide an ample amount of protein to a shake. You could also opt for protein powder but these are often quite processed and can end up being bad for you. We prefer real ingredients, for more natural high quality protein. Are protein smoothies good for weight loss?Yes – but drink them wisely. They can be a good source of fiber and protein, and therefore keep you full for a long time, which can help you stick to your weight loss meal plan. However, make sure you are making your smoothies with filling, natural ingredients, like fruit, oats, yogurt etc. There is many a protein drink that is full of sugar instead of healthy fats and protein, and therefore doesn’t fill you up. They just pile on empty calories that can lead to weight gain, as you will inevitably need to eat more to actually feel satisfied. How much protein should a breakfast smoothie have?This varies: it is estimated that the minimum amount to prevent deficiency should be 0.8grams per kilogram of body weight. This works out as the average amount for a man being 55g and for a woman being 45g. Reminder: upping your protein levels a bit to help you build muscle is a good idea, but, as with anything, you only need so much and too much protein is bad for you. We hope you have enjoyed whizzing up some high protein smoothies. Let us know which were your favourites in the comments.
