Given the popularity of juices today, we wanted to share the difference between fresh pressed juices versus superfood smoothies and bowls. Don’t get us wrong, we love fresh juices. They are delicious and incredibly nutrient dense beverages. However, there are a couple of key factors which make smoothies and bowls a better choice in terms of a quick meal!
Juicing removes all the plant fiber which allows the sugars in the juice to be released quickly into the bloodstream. This impacts the juice’s ability to promote stable, sustainable energy for the body. Smoothies, on the other hand, retain all the fiber and keep us satisfied and feeling good longer. Juice is also difficult to turn into a meal because protein, fiber and fat may all be missing. A superfood smoothie or açaí bowl is a meal in itself and will keep you satisfied and provide balanced nutrition.
So, by all means, enjoy the incredible fresh juices out there, but when you want something that doubles as a delicious treat and a meal, come visit us here at SARAVÁ!
