Does blending fruit increase the sugar content?

Answer

No. The nutrients in fruits and vegetables that are blended into a smoothie are similar to the nutrients found in their whole versions.

Drinking a smoothie allows you to consume fruits and vegetables much quicker than eating them whole. The speed at which you drink and the chewing process can affect how satisfied you feel. Therefore, it’s important not to rush through your smoothie and to also include a variety of whole fruits and vegetables in your diet.
