This weight loss drink will not only help you get hydrated, but it will help you flush out toxins, feel full and lose weight fast.
Please remember that any kind of store-bought appetite suppressant can be dangerous and may not necessarily help you with your weight loss goals.
There are so many weight loss recipes out there and it can be very misleading.
A healthy diet, exercise and self-control are key factors to successful weight loss.
Let’s take a look at the organic foods in this recipe.
Organic Kale and Cucumber Weight Loss Drink
Three apples a day can help you lose weight, says a study published in the journal Nutrition.
They are low in calories, act as a diuretic, high in dietary in fiber, and help keep the body alkaline. Cucumbers are a perfect weight loss food.
A study from the Institute for Human Nutrition at Columbia University showed that when participants drank a hot beverage with ginger, they felt more full and had less chance of overeating.
Kale:
It is a highly nutritious leafy green, packed with antioxidants and nutrients to flush out toxins. Plus, it is very low in calories and a good source of fiber.
They are high in pectin fiber, which helps suppress food cravings. It also helps the body eliminate waste products by cleansing and detoxifying it. Lemons are alkaline forming and will aid with weight loss.
Process the following ingredients in a juicer:
2 apples
4 stalks of celery
1 cucumber
1 inch piece of ginger
1 handful of kale
1 lemon
Optional: We like to add 1/2 a cup of filtered water
Make sure to use organic foods in this drink and that the water is filtered
We recommend Aquasana as a reputable source for water filters.
Enjoy!
