The Fab Four Smoothie is a formula to help you develop a blood sugar balancing meal replacement shake in any flavor with enough protein, fat, and fiber to keep you full. It was designed by celebrity nutritionist, Kelly LeVeque and I am totally obsessed with it!
“People don’t realize how insulin works in the body — it shuts down fat burning for six to eight hours. I can have a client trying really hard, going to get a smoothie and thinking it’s the right thing to do, and then that smoothie makes their blood sugar spike up and crashes down. People start to feel hungry as little as 90 minutes after a meal, when they’re starting to have that crash. When people elongate that blood sugar curve, they really can go four to six hours without thinking about food.”
