Most “flat belly” smoothies fail because they’re basically sugar bombs pretending to be healthy. You drink them, feel good for about 20 minutes, and then your stomach starts acting like it’s protesting something.
These smoothies are different because they focus on fiber, protein, hydration, and ingredients that actually keep digestion calm. They’re filling, they taste good, and they won’t leave you hungry five minutes later.
