The carbohydrate values of the fruit and vegetables will still remain the same even if you blend them, what may change in the speed at which that glucose from the carbohydrate is released into the blood stream, in this case they may effect your blood glucose levels quicker.............. |

I don't know much about blending, but I would have thought that just churning things up makes no difference to the carb contents of the constituents. If you put a couple of apples (1 CP each) and a banana (2 CPs) in a blender, you're going to get something that has 4 CPs. |
