Strategic Smoothie Science: Neutralizing Polyphenol Oxidase Degradation
Maximize the nutritional return on expensive greens and berries by managing the common enzyme that destroys their antioxidants before your body can use them.
Short Summary
- Identify common fruits like bananas and apples that contain Polyphenol Oxidase (PPO).
- Understand new research showing PPO can reduce antioxidant absorption by up to 84% when combined in smoothies.
- Implement a three-step framework—temperature control, acidity addition, and competitive inhibition—to safeguard your nutrients.
This guide explains the biochemistry behind antioxidant destruction in seemingly healthy foods. We break down the function of PPO, cite alarming research demonstrating extreme nutrient loss in banana-inclusive smoothies, and provide a pragmatic, science-backed framework to ensure you get the full benefit from every ingredient you purchase.

This info is bananas.
Normal people don't measure bananas in "cups."
Interesting study. Reading this study, it was done on 8 and 11 males. This is a pretty big conclusion to make based on 20 men. Directly from the study design " The banana smoothie was prepared with 177 g of ripe, frozen bananas and 240 g of almond milk" They used frozen bananas in this study so does that not conflict with your recommendation to use frozen bananas to decrease the PPO activity in the banana?
Cant block anything if I'm only having banana smoothie.
Always something new that this guy is trying to scare us about
I love bananas. You can never stop me.
SIMPLFIED : Freeze bananas and add a squeeze of lemon juice or lime juice to the smoothie .
Hence Guacamole ! Avocado and lime juice !✨💡
1:05 It's ok to bash the banana. It has really good self esteem
This is how I deal with this: Separate consumption of your bannana with your berries by one hour. Eat the berries, wait an hour, eat the bannana.
