1. Omega 3 Weight Loss Smoothie
Omega 3 are the fatty acids that come with numerous health benefits.
These are unsaturated fatty acids that prevent body inflammation. Moreover, the omega 3 fatty acids Eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA and Docosahexaenoic acid, DHA help in lowering the insulin levels in the body as well as promote fat burning. [1]
Omega 3 fatty acids prevent fat storage in the body and also increases the metabolic rate. Also, omega 3 is not actually produced in the body itself and therefore, it requires supplementation through foods.
And what can be a smoother way to include omega 3 in your diet with a weight loss smoothie?
Ingredients:
- 1 Muskmelon

2. Fruit and Nut Weight Loss Smoothie Recipe
For any weight loss diet plan, fruit and nut should definitely make the list. Why?

In fact, they are rich in vitamins, minerals and essential fats that help in lowering cholesterol as well as making you feel full that helps in preventing unhealthy snacking.
Again, fruits are a quintessential part of a healthy diet.
Besides being sources of vitamins, minerals, potassium, raw fruits are loaded with dietary fibers that improve digestion in the body besides helping in weight loss by keeping the stomach full for a long time. [2]
