Foods that clean, deflate and slim the waist –

Nutritionist Lucyanna Kalluf explains that this group is important in recovering your body (and waist measurements) after a day of overindulging at the table

brown rice
Contains phytochemicals (oryzanol and phytosterols) that have the power to reduce the absorption of fat by the organism. It is also rich in fibers, which clean the intestine.

oat bran
It has betaglucans, substances that stimulate the body to absorb less fat from food. Its fibers improve intestinal transit, helping to clean the intestine, in addition to prolonging the feeling of satiety.

Lettuce
It carries substances (chlorophyll + flavonoids) that, combined, contribute to reducing excess fluid, which makes deflate.

Cabbage
Among several important nutrients, it has a high content of chlorophyll, a substance that helps to clean the organism, especially the intestine. This nutrient still protects the liver from the harmful effects of alcoholic beverages.

Carrot
The combination of vitamins in this vegetable stimulates the metabolism, which tends to slow down after a difficult digestion process. It also carries two minerals, silicon and potassium, which work together to eliminate excess fluid in the body.

Pineapple
The bromelain enzyme present in the fruit facilitates the digestion of protein-rich foods (meat, fish, chicken). And its fibers increase satiety.

Watermelon
Loaded with fibers and water, deflates and cleans the body. To offer an even more efficient diuretic effect, you can beat the fruit with the seeds and strain the juice.

Kiwi
Rich in chlorophyll (which is why, even ripe, the fruit has a green color), it cleans the body. The minerals it carries (calcium, magnesium, potassium) reduce swelling and the fibers stimulate the intestine.

Honey
rich in fructose, balances blood pH and sugar levels. And, as the desire for sweets decreases, on the day of the diet it helps you to forget about the chocolate pave left over from the party.

horsetail and hibiscus
They facilitate digestion, deflate and have a slightly laxative effect, especially hibiscus. Horsetail also replenishes potassium and silicon, important minerals for the body’s recovery, which works twice as hard when you eat more than usual.

Chamomile and Melissa
They contain substances (the flavonoid apigenin, in chamomile, and essential oils, in melissa) with relaxing effectproviding a good night’s sleep.

Brewer’s yeast
Rich in B vitamins and minerals (calcium, copper, chromium, magnesium, potassium, selenium, silicon and zinc), decreases the absorption of sugar. In addition, it facilitates the recovery of the liver, which is especially overloaded on eating days.
