Blend spinach, cucumber, apple and lemon with water to make a green smoothie with no added sugar. Add the water gradually to adjust the thickness, and leave the apple unpeeled if you want its skin included.
No. A green smoothie with no added sugar still contains naturally occurring sugar from the apple. “No added sugar” means no sugar, syrup or other sweetener was added during preparation.
A green smoothie with no added sugar can be part of a varied diet, especially as a convenient way to have spinach and cucumber. It does not replace eating a range of whole vegetables and fruits.
A green smoothie with no added sugar does not cause weight loss on its own. It may be a useful alternative to a sweetened drink, but it may not keep you full as a meal unless paired with filling foods.
A green smoothie with no added sugar is best consumed soon after blending, since its color and flavor can change as it sits. If needed, keep it covered in the refrigerator and drink it the same day.
Yes, kale can replace spinach in a green smoothie with no added sugar. Kale has a stronger, sometimes more bitter taste, so keep the apple and lemon to balance the flavor, and blend thoroughly for a smooth texture.
Blending keeps the fruit and vegetables, including their pulp, in a green smoothie with no added sugar. Juicing removes much of that pulp, so the result is juice rather than a smoothie.
A green smoothie with no added sugar can accompany breakfast, but it may not be filling enough on its own. Pair it with a source of protein, such as eggs, yogurt or nuts, if you need a more substantial meal.
No. A green smoothie with no added sugar does not detox the body; the liver and kidneys handle waste processing. The drink can provide fruit and vegetables, but it cannot cleanse or remove toxins from your body.
People with diabetes may be able to include a green smoothie with no added sugar, but the apple’s natural sugar can affect blood glucose. Blending fruit may affect blood sugar differently from eating it whole, so follow your personal meal plan.

A green smoothie (no added sugar) is a blended drink made here with spinach, cucumber, apple and lemon. Smoothies have no single place of origin; this combination fits a modern, widely enjoyed way of turning fruit and vegetables into a quick drink. The apple brings mild sweetness, lemon adds a bright tang, and spinach gives it a fresh, vegetal note. Blending the ingredients together makes a thicker drink than simply juicing them.
Serve it chilled for breakfast or as a snack, whether you make it at home or pick one up from a café. Because the ingredients are blended rather than strained, some of their fibre remains; this version provides 1.7 g per 100 g. It pairs well with toast or a handful of nuts, and keeping the whole apple in the blend adds sweetness without needing syrup or other sweeteners.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
