Not everyone thinks carbs are the devil.
i ran 8 super technical trail miles this afternoon, and had a smoothie for supper - it contained spinach, apple juice, ginger, blueberries, strawberries, and banana, along with a blob of yogurt.the minute i finished it, i went into the bathroom to brush my teeth. imagine my surprise when i saw my reflection in the mirror...!
I don't consider a smoothie a drink... def feels like food to me.
My daughter loves smoothies, too. Of course she calls milk shakes smoothies...
Frankly when I read the article I got the distinct impression they were mainly referring to the "smoothie" drinks you can buy prepackaged...making your own from whole foods is a very different deal.
Adam loves them too. I started calling them milkshakes to make them sound more appealing.
