Do smoothies really work for weight loss?
When made right, they are one of the holy grail foods for weight loss. Not only are they packed with many essential nutrients, but they also taste a lot like sweet desserts.
Especially my 5 favorite smoothies that burn belly fat.
In order to maximize the fat burning benefits of each smoothie, try adding in one of Vitauthority’s best supplements. These powders taste amazing.
I’ve taken Detox Nourish and Lean Greens a couple times a day for a while now, and feel SO good. And just as a disclaimer I would not recommend this if I didn’t personally try it and approve.
Specifically, I recommend trying the:
- 1. Lean Greens (for a minty fresh, energy boost)
- 2. Multi Collagen Burn
- 3. Detox Nourish (to help curb your appetite and it tastes like lemonade!)
I add these supplements to my smoothies in order to holistically kick start weight loss and promote overall better wellness.
If you want to upgrade your healthy meal plan in order to burn more body fat, then check out my guide to the best smoothie recipes for weight loss.
1. Chocolate Peanut Butter Keto Smoothie
Calling all chocolate and peanut butter lovers! This smoothie tastes more like a chocolate treat and less like a belly fat burning recipe.
Not only does this smoothie taste amazing, but it is also very keto friendly. Keto friendly foods are high in fat and low in carbs in order to induce ketosis. Ketosis is a state in which your body burns fat for energy. Moreover, ketosis helps you lose weight by burning up your body’s extra fat reserves.
Ingredients (makes 1 serving):
- – 2 tbsp peanut butter
- – 1 tbsp cacao powder
- – 1/2 cup almond milk
- – 1 tbsp chia seeds
- – 1/4 avocado
- – 1 handful raw spinach
- – 1 handful ice (add more as needed)
2. Tropical Supergreens Smoothie
It’s estimated that one-third of Americans are deficient in essential vitamins and minerals. Not only does that mean many people could potentially face diseases like anemia, but they’re also loosing out on burning more fat.
Greens such as spinach and kale are some of the world’s most vitamin-rich foods. Their vitamins are well known to help induce weight loss and fat burning. Drinking the greens in a smoothie is one of the easiest ways to sneak them into your diet.
Try this smoothie loaded with greens to help burn body fat.
Ingredients (makes 1 serving):
- – 1 handful fresh spinach
- – 1 green apple, cubed
- – 1/2 cup frozen mango chunks
- – 1 chunk fresh ginger, grated
- – 1/2 frozen banana, sliced
- – 1 cup cucumber, chopped
- – 1 handful ice (add more as needed)
- – Scoop of Vitauthority’s Lean Greens
In order to maximize this smoothie’s fat burning benefits, try adding 1 scoop of Vitautority’s Lean Greens. This supplement is loaded with greens and other weight loss ingredients. These ingredients help fat burning by:
- 1. Boosting metabolism
- 2. Improving digestion
- 3. Increasing your energy levels
Take your green smoothie to the next level with the Lean Greens supplement.
3. Berry and Banana Smoothie
Next, try this classic berry and banana smoothie recipe. Berries are one of the most antioxidant-rich foods on the planet. Antioxidants promote weight loss by:
- 1. Boosting metabolism
- 2. Breaking down fats
- 3. Promoting healthy gut bacteria
Not only do berries help you lose weight, they also help promote overall wellness. For example, clear skin and lower levels of blood pressure are additional benefits you get from berries.
Ingredients (makes 1 serving):
- – 1 frozen banana, sliced
- – 1/2 cup almond milk
- – 1 cup frozen berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- – 1 tsp honey
- – 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
- – 1 handful ice (add more as needed)
- – 1 scoop Vitauthority’s Multi Collagen Burn
Just like the antioxidants in berries, collagen promotes similar weight loss and wellness benefits. Adding Vitauthority’s Multi Collagen Burn to your smoothie will enhance it by:
- 1. Providing more fat burning ingredients
- 2. Keeping your skin looking firm and hydrated
- 3. Strengthening joints
Berries and collagen work together to help you both feel and look your best.
4. Coffee and Nut Butter Smoothie
If you’re anything like me, coffee is one food you’d have a hard time giving up. Thankfully, you don’t have to give up coffee if you’re trying to burn belly fat. Coffee actually has a long list of fat burning benefits including:
- 1. Increasing metabolism
- 2. Reducing cravings
- 3. Providing antioxidants
Next time you go to prepare your morning coffee, try putting together this easy smoothie recipe:
Ingredients (makes 1 serving):
- – 8 oz. brewed coffee, cooled
- – 2 tbsp nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew)
- – 1 frozen banana, sliced
- – 2 medjool dates, pitted
- – 1/2 cup almond milk
- – 1 handful ice (add more as needed)
In case you missed it, I have a guide to the best iced coffee shakes that are packed with protein. They’re great for post workout. Check them out to get the fat burning benefits of coffee from your daily protein shake.
5. Citrus-y Detox Smoothie
Every once in a while, your body needs a detox. After long periods of unhealthy eating, your body could contain a lot of toxins from sugar and processed foods. This backup of toxins prevents you from burning belly fat.
Therefore, try detoxing in order to get these toxins out of your system and keep fat burning going. Detoxing has the following fat burning benefits including:
- 1. Increasing energy levels
- 2. Enhancing metabolism
- 3. Reducing belly bloat
Try this orange and carrot detox smoothie in order to both detoxify and get fat burning going again.
Ingredients (makes 1 serving):
- – 3 small mandarin oranges, peeled
- – 2 medium sized carrots, chopped
- – 1 chunk fresh ginger, grated
- – 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- – 1 cup coconut water
- – 1/2 tsp honey
- – 1 scoop Vitauthority’s Detox Nourish
Scientific research shows that ingredients in Vitauthority’s Detox Nourish help your liver with detoxification. This leads to better weight loss results. Some of the ingredients in Detox Nourish that help with fat burning are:
- 1. Apple cider vinegar
- 2. Juniper berry
- 3. Inositol powder
To up-charge the belly fat burning benefits of this smoothie, don’t forget to add a scoop of Vitauthority’s Detox Nourish.
