Independent T-test was used to analyze the differences of  blood glucose levels between the treatment group and the control group and ANOVA Repeated Measure Test was used to analyze  determine the relationship between smoothies combination of fruits and vegetables with controlled blood glucose levels and nutrient intake.Results :  There were no significant effect in fasting blood glucose levels (p=0.799) between treatment group and control group, while the energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate and fiber intake level were effected on fasting blood glucose levels but not significant (p 0.05).Conclusion : Consumption of smoothies combination of fruits and vegetables for 3 weeks can lower fasting blood glucose level in adult women by 5,33mg/dl (4,35%), althought statistically insignificant.
