Getting Protein From A Smoothie

It can sometimes be difficult to get all the protein we need, in spite of the fact that protein is one of the most important things for us to put into our bodies. After all, we are advised to get 50 grams of protein each day, and some of our diets do not make this reasonable. And while there is, of course, the option of protein smoothies where we can get lots of protein at once, most protein smoothies taste gross, right? Actually, you can make a delicious protein smoothie that still gives you all the protein you need, as soon as you know how to make protein smoothies the right way!

Some people have been led to believe that the only way to make an effective protein smoothie is with such ingredients as milk, raw eggs, and peanut butter. But actually, you can make a delicious fruit smoothie and add some protein powder, and this will get you as much goodness as those other, less tasty drinks.

The first thing you need to do is make sure the protein you are buying is high-quality whey protein; the protein powder is no good if it is low-quality, and it is also not giving you what you need if it is soy protein. Secondly, you need to get protein powder that is either vanilla flavored or unflavored if your goal is to make a protein smoothie that still tastes delicious.

When you buy the juice, bananas, and strawberries for your smoothie, make sure that all of the ingredients you are buying are fresh and organic. Orange juice is the best juice to combine with protein powder, but if your taste preference varies from this, you can certainly try something different! When it comes to fruits and berries, you can also try some different things such as pineapple or rasberries; additionally, you can try yogurt, and some people even do find that peanut butter is good in a fruit smoothie! As for making the actual smoothie, it is quite simple: just toss the orange juice, fruit, and berries into the blender with the recommended amount of protein powder, and blend until it is smooth!

Getting the protein you need is not difficult, and it does not have to be disgusting; all you need is high-quality whey protein powder, fresh juice, and the right mixture of fresh fruits and berries!
