There are no calories in Truvia, and I prefer the consistency. It’s more granular, like sugar, and pure Stevia is like a crushed powder. It’s okay for smoothies, but icky when you’re eating it on fruit, or cereal.
The naturally occuring sugars in fruit have almost no resemblance to processed sugars in packaged foods. Unless you are diabetic or morbidly obese and are on special diets, you should eat a variety of fruit every day. The only qualm I have with this recipe is the peanut butter, if processed.
Just tried this today. I liked it a lot better than the Green Smoothie
Dr. Oz endorses. Hope it does help with weight management.
Fruit is naturally high in sugar (Fructose). It looks like all the sugar grams in this recipe are coming form the fruit. Are you suggesting that any recipe with fruit should not be construed as healthy?
This nutrition info cannot be correct. Sugar is a carbohydrate. This can’t have 5g of carbs and 23g of sugar. Fiber is a carbohydrate too.
