SMOOTHIES
Smoothies are billed as a natural and healthy food, but the sugars from fruit in smoothies can add hundreds of extra calories to a person's daily intake, Ms Bond said.
She said: 'While smoothies are undoubtedly better than sugary, fizzy drinks and can help you on your way to one or even two of your five-a-day, the health benefits of some are questionable.
'Many of those purchased in shops and supermarkets are very high in calories, with added whole-milk yogurt, syrups, sugar, even peanut butter and chocolate.
'Juicing also involves the removal of fibre. This not only removes some of the nutrients that would be found in a whole fruit or vegetable, but you are also less likely to feel fuller for longer.'
