I am a Registered Dietitian, so, of course, I believe in eating fruits and vegetables and greens daily. I used to have severe bloating symptoms from smoothies. Now, I have perfected a smoothie that is lower in fructose and works for me. In 2013, I tested positive for Fructose malabsorption via a breath test at my GI clinic. I believe that this is secondary to my SIBO. I am still working to rid my body of the SIBO, but in the mean time, this smoothie recipe seems to work well for me and minimizes bloating.
My low fructose smoothie recipe:
2 Tbsp almond butter
1 cup frozen strawberries or 2/3 cup blueberries (or combination of both)
1/2 frozen banana
greens or kale, steamed first, 1 handful
1/4 avacado (max serving for fodmap)
1 T honey (Clover if possible)
Coconut milk, A-roy w/o fillers
Put all items in blender and mix. Almond or cocout milk amount can be adjusted to desired thickness.
I love my smoothies very thick!! Enjoy with a spoon!
