Drinking a smoothie every day seems like a good idea. When you can pack so many fruits and vegetables into one easy-to-drink beverage, it feels like it’s healthy.But a daily smoothie can also hide some severely damaging risks.

Even if you try to stick to the strictest of terms and opt for smoothies made exclusively out of vegetables, don't assume you're safe.

1.Too much sugar can lead to diabetes

Sugary smoothies can do a real toll on your body and when you drink one every day, you face some very serious long-term side effects.The side effect to worry about with a daily smoothie is elevated blood sugar that exceeds healthy limits.

The bigger side effect to worry about is a daily routine that causes an excessive blood sugar spike that can, over the course of many years, contribute to more serious diseases like diabetes, heart disease or even Alzheimer's.

2.You'll have increased bowel movements

Protein smoothies are rich in protein and potassium, so it's an ideal drink for athletes as protein helps repair and build muscle tissue and provides energy, but if taken appropriately as high doses can cause some side effects, such as increased bowel movements.

If you want a drink with laxative properties, make sure to have a daily protein smoothie. This double-edged side effect might come as a welcome surprise to anyone who faces chronic constipation, but everyone else might not take this result as kindly.

Acidic, sweet or neutral – If this isn’t how you categorize your fruits when combining them, you need a lesson in how to go about your salads. First of all, you shouldn’t mix fruits and vegetables with each other. Second of all, you shouldn’t even combine certain fruits with each other.

This basically depends on the speed of digestion of different fruits and vegetables. Many permutations that you are making are perhaps hindering optimal digestion and assimilation.

In addition to not eating too much fruit smoothies, we should also pay attention to the matching of ingredients in fruit smoothies, which is very important.Here’s how you can decide what to pull in that bowl of yours the next time.

1.Have melons with melons

Melons are celibates. They never pair up with anyone else. Have them by themselves as they may not digest well with any other fruit. This is because they digest faster than most other fruits owing to their high water content. Avoid mixing your watermelons, muskmelons, cantaloupe and honeydews with other fruits.

2.Never have acidic/sub acidic with sweet fruits

Try not to mix acidic fruits, such as grapefruits and strawberries, or sub-acidic foods such as apples, pomegranates and peaches, with sweet fruits, such as bananas and raisins for a better digestion. However, you can mix acidic with sub-acidic fruits.

For a similar reason, you should not mix guavas and bananas. Some studies claim that the duo can even increase your chances of nausea, acidosis and headaches.

3.Never mix starchy with high protein

Only a few fruits are starchy in nature. These include green bananas and plantains. But there are many vegetables that are starchy in nature, such as corns, potatoes, cowpeas, black-eyed peas and water chestnuts.

You should never mix them with high protein fruits and vegetables such as raisins, guava, spinach and broccoli. This is because your body needs an acidic base to digest proteins and an alkaline base to digest starches.

In addition, there are some wild ingredients that can make our smoothies more nutritious, and you can add these in moderation.

1.Avocado

Avocado is already a pretty creamy fruit, and one of the best foods to eat for weight loss thanks to its high fiber content. By adding a serving of avocado to your smoothie, you're filling up on good monounsaturated fat that will leave you feeling full. Plus, it makes your smoothie creamier without loading it .

2.Greek yogurt

While adding a scoop of protein powder can be an obvious way to boost the protein in your smoothie, an easy natural way to do so is by adding a bit of Greek yogurt instead. If you add 6 ounces of plain non-fat Greek yogurt, you're only adding a whopping 17 grams of protein to your drink.
