If you are trying to simultaneously gain weight and put on more muscle, high calorie smoothie can be a delicious way to add extra calories to your daily intake. You need to replace the fat and carbohydrate calories that you've burned during your workout in addition to a slight increase in protein for muscle growth. High calorie smoothie is healthier and nutritious than any other product that promises the same result in additive, pill, shake or powder forms.

General Preparations for High Calorie Smoothies

Before making such healthy smoothies, you need to be aware of some basic guidelines: always use a clean cutting board; wash all of your fruits and veggies before consuming them; should you have leftovers, store them in the fridge and be sure to use them that day; Do NOT ever use raw eggs! You can, however, use a product like eggbeaters because it's pasteurized.
