Shakes are great for those trying to control their calorie intake but still maintain a high level of energy and a balanced diet. The key to great diet shakes is to avoid sugar and to up the content of protein in each drink in order to make them nutritious and filling.
Fruit Smoothies
High Protien Diet
Fruit shakes are great for dieting as long as you stay away from fruits that contain a high amount of sugar and instead stick to those with a low glycemic index, such as apples, peaches and berries.
Fruit smoothies are best at breakfast, since they provide a high dose of nutrients and are dense enough to keep you full until lunchtime.
Protein Shakes
Protein shakes have a double benefit: they are filling, so you end up eating less in the long run, and they're great for people trying to build muscle mass and to achieve a good level of energy in the process. You can make a basic protein shake with milk (use skim or fat-free), soymilk or yogurt.
Add fruits and ice to thicken it and you're ready to go. Protein powders, while good for extra calories and a boost of protein, are not really necessary unless you're involved in a strict training program.
Things to Avoid
What shouldn't a diet shake include? Sugar is the first ingredient that should be absent. This includes sugar not only in its white form, but also in the form of fructose (fruit juices), lactose (full-fat dairy products) and others. If you can't stand the natural flavor of the mix, try using Splenda or other type of artificial sweeteners.
