Flax Seeds With Kefir
By the age of 25, the human body accumulates a lot of unnecessary and toxic substances, and this “supply” only increases day by day. A heavy load of toxins and body fat causes the body to age faster. Gastrointestinal tract, cardiovascular system and skin suffer the most. To prevent this, there are many ways to cleanse the body. Cook It is offering one of the simplest methods: introduce into your diet a drink that works as a brush for the stomach. The drink consists of flax seeds and kefir.
Just two simple ingredients and so many health benefits! We hope this recipe will become your go-to morning drink. Be sure to make it at home!
Cleansing Drink
You need specifically kefir, neither milk nor yogurt. Out of all dairy products, kefir contains yeast, bacilli and streptococci that provide a friendly flora in the large and small intestine — this is important. That’s why not only milk-based kefir is suitable, but even the one made on water.
Flax seeds contain omega-3 fatty acids that dissolve fecal concretions and heal the mucous membranes. However, only whole or coarsely ground seeds work as a brush for the stomach. Expanding, they fill it, providing a sense of fullness for a long time and cleansing the intestinal wall at the same time.
Weight Loss Drink
The use of kefir with flax seeds stimulates the body to lose weight, regulates blood cholesterol and normalizes lipid metabolism. For effective cleaning of the digestive tract, body renewal and weight loss, it is extremely important to take a drink according to a special plan, which you will find at the end of the article. This method is relevant for those who notice the following health complications.
- inflammatory processes in the respiratory system
- inflammatory processes of the gastrointestinal tract (gastritis, ulcers)
- colitis
- diseases of the genitourinary system
- excess weight
Body Detoxification Course
The plan is designed for 21 days. If you have not arranged a “spring clean” for the stomach for a long time, doctors recommend repeating the course after 2 weeks. Also, to maintain the effect you need to return to the course once every six months.
- First week: for breakfast, drink ½ cup (100 ml) of kefir with 3 teaspoons of flax seeds (it is better to grind them in a mortar right before using).
- Second week: ½ cup (100 ml) of kefir with 6 teaspoons of flax seeds for breakfast.
- Third week: ⅔ cup (150 ml) of kefir with 9 teaspoons of flax seeds for breakfast.
Make it a routine to drink a glass of hot water 40 minutes before breakfast to start the body (as you know, in the early morning our body is not yet ready to digest the food, and it needs help). Remember that this should be your only breakfast! Kefir with seeds before bedtime isn’t that effective, it’s better to please yourself with a protein dinner from chicken breast or eggs.
Even if you start chewing a tablespoonful of flax seeds before breakfast, it will also pay off — a useful life hack to maintain the results after taking a cleansing course.
