How to Estimate Smoothie Nutrition
Approximate Values per Ingredient
| Ingredient | Calories | Protein | Carbs | Fat | |-----------|---------|---------|-------|-----| | 1 banana | 105 | 1.3 g | 27 g | 0.4 g | | 1 cup berries | 70 | 1 g | 17 g | 0.5 g | | 240 mL milk (2%) | 100 | 8 g | 12 g | 5 g | | 1 scoop protein | 120 | 25 g | 3 g | 1.5 g | | 1 tbsp nut butter | 95 | 3.5 g | 3 g | 8 g | | 100 g Greek yogurt | 59 | 10 g | 3.6 g | 0.5 g |
These are estimates using typical whole milk, whey protein, and natural peanut butter. Actual values vary by brand.
Worked Example
1 banana, 1 cup berries, 240 mL milk, 1 scoop protein, 1 tbsp peanut butter, 100 g yogurt.
banana = 1berries = 1milk_ml = 240protein_scoops = 1nut_butter_tbsp = 1yogurt_g = 100
- 01Calories = 105 + 70 + 101 + 120 + 95 + 59 = 550 cal
- 02Protein = 1.3 + 1 + 8 + 25 + 3.5 + 10 = 49 g
- 03Carbs = 27 + 17 + 12 + 3 + 3 + 3.6 = 66 g
- 04Fat = 0.4 + 0.5 + 5 + 1.5 + 8 + 0.5 = 16 g
