Supposedly the most powerful home blender on the planet, the Blendtec can whip avocados into guacamole without skinning or stoning them first. More practically, it's so fast that it can make chicken breasts into hot chicken soup and make anything you like - bananas, spinach, iPads - into a smoothie within seconds (check out willitblend.com). Expensive, yes, but a worthy investment for the man who likes his post-gym protein in a flask.
 
Mix it up
Rethink your smoothies with advice from Nosh Detox founder Geeta Sidhu-Robb.
 
Sweet and sour
'Combine green veg with tangy fruits,' says Sidhu-Robb. 'The tastes complement each other well. Celery, spinach and cucumber go well with kiwi fruit or apples, giving a big antioxidant hit without too much sugar.'


 
Freezy does it
'Frozen fruit is much better than fruit that's been shipped across the country and sat around losing nutrients for a few weeks,' says Sidhu-Robb.
 
Go natural
'For a delicious slow-release complex protein shake, mix up some almond milk, banana, oats and a handful of hemp seeds,' suggests Sidhu-Robb. For a quick post-gym hit of protein, add 100ml of water, a scoop of whey protein powder and a load of ice cubes - the result is a lot like ice cream.
