You should know that obesity is epidemic among American adults and that fast food choices are high in calories, fat, carbohydrates, sugar and sodium. But knowing the nutritional values before you place your order can shed those extra pounds.
For Example, Double Chocolaty Chip Frappuccino Blended Creme´ (the 20-ounce “Venti” size) with whole milk and whipped cream has 520 calories, 23g of fat and 76g of carbs. Using a recommended daily calorie count of 2000 per day, This beverage would equate to about 26% of your recommended daily calories, just on a beverage! Not a very healthy choice.
However, knowing the nutritional values and being current with technology, you can make better choices! Before ordering, checkout the new menu boards, get online line via Starbucks.com or through Starbucks Mobile App for iPhone and use the interactive nutritional interface that will inform you of the healthier choice.
For instance, If you go online via Starbucks.com and select Menu and then Drink Nutrition, you will get an interactive selection menu. I'm able to build my Double Chocolaty Chip Frappuccino Blended Creme´ to meet my specific nutritional needs, whether it's size, type of milk or with or without whip cream. In this case, choosing to use nonfat milk would lower the calories from 520 to 350 and drop the fat from 23g to 5g. Awesome!
Shed those extra pounds by getting interactive and making informed healthy choices.
