I think you don’t quite understand the nature of sugar…sugar in fruits is a good thing when accompanied with fiber (smoothies) as your body assimilates it slower and its converted to a cleaner energy. Fruit juices that separates all the fiber is giving the sugar straight to the body which increases insulin etc. honey isn’t necessarily bad if you eat it in smaller doses. But there is lots of sugar in honey and not the fiber but there are health benefits to honey too.
4 tbsp of agave? or did you list that twice by mistake?
This looks great for a special treat! I can’t wait to try it!
There are 2 tablespoons in each portion of the smoothie so 4 tablespoons total.
yumm — I love strawberries & coconut
