Smoothies have become a really popular alternative to the notion of "juicing," if you're looking for something more filling. Unlike juicing, creating a smoothie brings you all the benefits of things like fiber and the ability to add healthful herbs and spices as well as other components to boost the overall nutritional upside.

The apple pie smoothie, one of my favorites, provides a great source of fiber from not just the pulp of the apple but from the bioflavonoid-rich skin as well. These are the components we are looking for as it pertains to keeping uric acid in check. There are great sources of healthful fat from the Greek yogurt, almond milk, and the raw almond butter. And in addition, this healthful treat provides anti-inflammatory and glucose-controlling benefits from the nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon, and a flavor that really brings it home!
