I have a friend who thought a daily smoothie from Jamba Juice was healthy. 30 minutes later he'd be fighting off a nap. He had to quit smoothies altogether.

If your smoothie has a banana and a tablespoon of honey, it's nutrition label, if it had one, would probably be showing >30 grams of sugar. No, not refined sugar, so better on the glycemic index, but still a lot of sweetness.
