And we’re not talking about an all-green smoothie with off-putting flavors, far from it!
For a good night’s sleep and a little slimming boost, this drink is ready in just a few minutes with just four ingredients. It’s creating a buzz and some even say it’s effective for targeting those pounds in the stomach. Of course, it will not replace a balanced diet or a little exercise, but it can certainly be integrated into a wellness routine.
Requiring sacrifices that are difficult to maintain in the long term, restrictive diets are often disappointing. So, when a drink promises to act on the feeling of hunger and to support slimming efforts, it’s rather tempting. This recipe combines seeds rich in fiber and protein, known for their appetite suppressant effects. Thanks to them, the 10 p.m. craving can easily subside. We are talking here about chia seeds and flax seeds. Known for their satiating properties, they offer essential nutrients. Chia seeds, for example, contain fiber and protein, ideal for curbing appetite and helping regulate blood sugar levels. Flaxseeds, for their part, provide omega-3, good for heart health, and contain lignin, an antioxidant known for its benefits on blood pressure and weight control.
Once the chia and flax seeds are mixed in a container, add some fresh lemon juice. This third ingredient is essential for its tonic effect and its supply of vitamin C. Almond milk then binds everything together, with around 150 ml to obtain a pleasant consistency. After mixing well, let the drink sit for approximately three hours. This pause time allows the seeds to hydrate and release their fibers. Just before consuming it, it is advisable to add a little more almond milk, then whisk everything for a smooth texture.
A small amount goes a long way: two tablespoons of this mixture before bed can help you better manage peckishness and eliminate fat from the abdominal area. So, if the idea of losing a little belly while sleeping appeals to you, you know what you have to do.
