Homemade smoothies are an easy way to add fruit and fluids to your diet on hot days. Below you will find the basics of making a smoothie and a few refreshing combinations worth trying.
Making a Shake with Herbalife
Using Herbalife Formula 1 shake in different flavors as a base will give you a tasty, healthy drink. This scientifically developed shake contains more than twenty types of vitamins and minerals, is rich in protein and dietary fiber, and can actually replace one full meal a day. The drink will help you eat well, maintain a balanced diet and manage your weight.
How to make the smoothie
To prepare a Formula 1 shake, use two measuring scoops of shake powder, containing twenty-six grams of powder. You can blend the powder with a soy drink or low-fat milk, and add a few ice cubes if you want a thicker texture. For variety, you can add all kinds of fruit, vegetables, nuts and spices.
