@daveshaw Oat milk, then yogurt (milk product), why not just whole milk? Also, Greek yogurt is much higher in protein than regular yogurt, and you can get vanilla flavored (Walmart). I get casein protein powder (online, Bulk Supplements) at a pretty good price. No clue what hemp hearts are - never heard of this.

@capnjack I am looking at plain Greek yogurt that has 7 grams of sugar per serving and too good yogurt which 13 gms per serving and actually tastes good.
Oat milk also varies widely in gms of sugar per serving. Planet Oat milk has only 3gms of sugar per serving. Far less than milk and also other oat milks. Secondly at our age we don’t need the sugar and fat in regular milk.
All smoothies are not created equal.
Read the labels.
Hemp hearts are shelled hemp seeds.
High in omegas, protein and magnesium with a decent dose of fiber.

@capnjack Oat milk has just 3 gms of sugar. Whole milk has 7-12 gms of sugar. My yogurt has 2gms of sugar and as much protein as Greek yogurt and tastes a whole lot better.
There was an article regarding protein powder not being good for you and whey powder gives you the same amount of protein.
Long story short I am sure your smoothie is good as well.
I am still waiting to hear if anyone has tried my smoothie.
PS I had never heard of hemp hearts either but they are loaded with protein and Omega 3 and 6
