What the evidence says

Meal-replacement approaches can create a calorie deficit, and some structured meal-replacement programs have been studied in clinical settings.

There is limited independent evidence on this specific plan. We found no peer-reviewed study of The Smoothie Diet itself.

Smoothies can be high in sugar from fruit and lower in protein than a full meal. Liquid meal plans may not suit people with diabetes, a history of disordered eating, pregnancy, or those taking certain medications.

Who it may suit

  • Healthy adults who like smoothies and want a short, structured plan.
  • People who want ready-made recipes and shopping lists.

Who should skip it

  • People with diabetes or blood-sugar concerns, unless a doctor approves.
  • Anyone with a history of disordered eating.
  • People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or who take medication affected by diet.
  • Anyone who doesn't own a blender or dislikes liquid meals.
