Enjoy drinking one of these delicious smoothies as a meal or snack. We’ve packed each recipe with inflammation-fighting ingredients like cherries, berries, dark leafy greens and nut butters for a couple of reasons. First, they make these drinks extra flavorful. Second, these foods have been shown to help combat pesky symptoms of chronic inflammation like mental fog, digestive issues and joint stiffness.
In addition, we’ve made each drink in this collection carb- and calorie-conscious, while limiting sodium and saturated fat contents to align with a diabetes-friendly eating pattern. One reader calls our Cherry-Mocha Smoothie “a personal favorite.” And recipes like our Creamy Strawberry Smoothie and Mango Raspberry Smoothie don’t disappoint, either!
