Smoothie Tips And Variations

If you have the ingredients available to you stated in the recipe of this anti nausea smoothie for pregnancy, then follow the recipe as listed.
However, if you lack some of the ingredients, and require a substitute, here’s a list of possible swaps you can make and still get the effects you want from the smoothie:
- Swap the banana for applesauce. The quantity should be the same – 1 cup.
- Fresh mint can be substituted for 1/3 tsp of dried mint instead.
- The fresh ginger root can be substituted for 1/4 tsp of ginger powder.
- Swap the coconut water for plain water or even Greek yogurt. Yogurt is fine with nausea, even though it’s a dairy product.
I have used both a blender and a nutribullet to make this smoothie.
If you use a blender, make sure you add the frozen banana slices first to you blender, followed by the others.
If you use a nutribullet, add the frozen banana slices last, since you will need to flip the blender cup, which means the banana slices will be closer to the blades.
The takeaway is – you want the most difficult to blend ingredients closer to your blender blades.
