After I posted my enthusiasm about using a Bullet to make Smoothies with raw vegetables and fruits, my medical team advised me against it for now, due to my ongoing investigation into Crohns/ulcerative colitis and inflammation alerts on my lab tests.
Duh. Don't know why that never occurred to me, since I can't tolerate raw food at all right now. Duh again!
Lol. Oh well, under all this manure, there must be a PONY somewhere!

No worries, Laurie. You should still be able to make shakes using foods that are low in fiber. How about the fruits and vegetables you can tolerate. Can those be used to make your shakes? Banana and apple should be OK. Veggies should be cooked not raw. Besides the plant based milks there are dairy milks available without lactose for those who are lactose intolerant. Is your GI sensitive to the plant based milks? I prefer using dairy milk without the lactose with my oatmeal to keep the carb count down. You would think the senior centers to have different diets available to please their residents. There are so many needs. How about ready made shakes? I get the diabetic shakes for my mother. I have noticed there are also mixes available for smoothies at the grocery stores. Maybe there is one for you. Some contain vitamins as well. Don’t give up. Look into the possibilities. The mixes can be used with a blender or a bullet. A suggestion would be to check the Amazon website to see what is out there.
