I saw this on yahoo.com today and I wanted to share it with you guys. Click Here its really interesting to read this. I don't drink a lot of things like this and when I do I drink diet snapple. Here is a sample:
Worst “Health” Drink in America
Smoothie King Peanut Power Plus Grape (large, 40 fl oz)
1,498 calories
44 g fat (8 g saturated)
214 g sugars (a mind-blowing 54 teaspoons' worth!)
Sugar Equivalent: 20 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
If Smoothie King wants someone to blame for landing this high on our worst beverages roundup (and truth be told, its entire menu is riddled with contenders), the chain should point the smoothie straw at whichever executive came up with the cup-sizing structure. Sending someone out the door with a 40-ounce cup? Who really needs a third of a gallon of sweetened peanut butter blended with grape juice, milk, and bananas? Sugar-and-fat-loaded smoothies like this should be served from 12-ounce cups, not mini kegs.
Drink This Instead!
High Protein Banana (small, 20 fl oz)
322 calories
9 g fat (1 g saturated)
23 g sugars
And don’t forget, you can still melt those 18 pounds of belly fat--or giving up your favorite foods. You just need to make smart substitutions wherever you are. For starters, avoid everything on this list: The 20 Worst Restaurant Foods in America. You'll lose weight faster than ever—again, without ever dieting again. That's the Eat This, Not That! mission.
