Balanced Blood Sugar Smoothie

Balanced Blood Sugar Smoothie

Fruits are an excellent addition to your smoothie, but they can cause blood sugar levels to spike when they're eaten without restraint! This is a great smoothie that not only incorporates fruits but uses relatively low-glycemic fruit, so those who have diabetes or otherwise watching their blood sugar levels can still enjoy it without worry.
