This high-protein smoothie is great as a quick snack, post-workout shake, or even for breakfast. It contains ingredients that last for months, making it my preferred vegan keto shake.
Benefits of Nutrition to Health
This drink offers a variety of advantages because it is loaded with nutritious ingredients. It has a low sugar content, which helps control blood sugar levels; a high protein content for repairing muscles; and a high iron content.
Low Carbs & High Fiber – The majority of the smoothie’s carbohydrates come from fibre. This is excellent news for keto dieters since they frequently lack this type of nourishment. Don’t worry about increasing your daily intake of fibre because it is considered a net carb because it is not digested.
High protein – Getting enough protein in a vegan diet can be challenging, especially when it’s part of a ketogenic diet! Eating a high protein diet is especially crucial if you exercise frequently, like I do. After a little workout, this high-protein smoothie is excellent. Simply add an additional half scoop of vegan protein powder to this smoothie if you want to engage in a vigorous workout.
Healthy Fats: Although it’s simple to assume that all fats are unhealthy, there are actually many distinct kinds of fats. Some are bad, but the majority are beneficial to you. Trans fat and saturated fat, both of which are extremely minimal in this smoothie, should be avoided. A healthy body requires additional fats like polyunsaturated fat and monounsaturated fat.
Good Source of Iron – Because a lot of people get their iron from animal products, iron is another nutrient that is lacking in a vegan diet. An iron deficiency that affects about 10 million Americans and can cause significant fatigue. You can get an excellent source of iron from this smoothie to keep your levels at their best.
Powdered vegan protein
This smoothie uses a vegan protein powder that is suitable for keto and adds a health boost to the drink as a whole. I advise choosing the best organic, sugar-free, high-protein, high-iron protein powder you can find. That will give this vegan keto smoothie an extra nutrient boost and benefit your health.
Simply add 15 grammes of the nutrition in a different type of protein powder to the label below if you use it.
Professional Advice & Techniques
Everyone dislikes warm smoothies, or at least I don’t, so chill the soy milk! I suggest using cooled soy milk, and if you like your smoothie particularly chilly, you may even add 1 or 2 ice cubes.
