INGREDIENT BENEFITS
Banana – are healthy and nutritious, high in fiber and low in calories, reduce bloating, control your appetite and help in weight loss
Blueberries – may influence genes which regulate fat-burning and storage, helping reduce abdominal fat and lower cholesterol
Blackberries – rich in antioxidants like catechins, which give them the natural ability to help activate fat-burning genes in belly-fat cells. They’re also loaded with polyphenols – chemical compounds that may prevent fat from forming
Almond Butter – packed with protein, fibre and good fats, as well as vitamin E, magnesium and potassium. Has the same benefits to shed excess weight as raw almonds
Yogurt – rich in protein for extended length of satiation, improves your metabolism which helps you burn calories throughout the day
Almond Milk – is rich in calcium, potassium, vitamin E and vitamin D among others. All these nutrients are helpful in weight loss as they keep the metabolism fast, aid digestion and keep problems like bloating away
Dates – rich in iron, fluorine content, fiber and essential fatty acids that aid weight loss. They’re also super-helpful in shedding those extra pounds
Chia Seeds – rich in protein which helps in reducing appetite and food intake. The protein content in these healthy seeds promotes growth and development, building muscle mass, and thereby reducing your body fat in many ways
