For some patients, getting enough protein daily feels like a chore. Turn your boring shake habit into a pleasant treat every once in a while by creating protein fortified smoothie. Berries are a relatively low sugar fruit and balancing with protein helps to avoid a blood sugar spike. Blueberry pie anyone?
