Smoothie bowls offer many of the same health advantages as traditional smoothies.It’s possible to have too much of a good thing.While smoothie bowls are fundamentally healthful, big quantities and high-calorie ingredients should be avoided.

“Most smoothies and smoothie bowls are inherently healthy due to the fact that they usually contain a lot of whole foods, but they are only as healthy as the individual ingredients that you put in them,” says Tori Wesszer, R.D. (Source : beachbodyondemand.com/ )
