    Satisfying Smoothies to a Flat Belly

    Four-Day Anti-Bloat Jumpstart to a Flat Belly.
    The smoothie is your floating 4th meal.
    Enjoy a refreshing smoothie any time you feel the need for an energy boost.

    Blueberry Smoothie (Day 1)
    Place 1 cup of skim milk and 1 cup of frozen, unsweetened blueberries in blender and blend for 1 minute. Transfer to glass, and stir in 1 Tbsp cold-pressed organic flaxseed oil.

    Pineapple Smoothie (Day 2)
    Place 1 cup of skim milk, 4 oz canned pineapple tidbits in juice in blender, add a handful of ice, and whip for 1 minute. Transfer to glass, and stir in 1 Tbsp cold-pressed organic flaxseed oil.

    Peach Smoothie (Day 3)
    Place 1 cup of skim milk and 1 cup of frozen, unsweetened peaches in blender and blend for 1 minute. Transfer to glass, and stir in 2 tsp cold-pressed organic flaxseed oil.

    Strawberry Smoothie (Day 4)
    Combine 1 cup of skim milk and 1 cup of frozen, unsweetened strawberries in blender. Blend, transfer to glass, and stir in 2 tsp cold-pressed organic flaxseed oil.

    Keep in mind that you may swap 6 ounces enriched rice milk or 1 cup plain lowfat soymilk for 1 cup of nonfat cow’s milk.

    For the flax oil, you may substitute 1 tablespoon canola, sunflower or walnut oil. Stirring the flax oil into the smoothie after blending is more effective. Fat is likely to stick to the sides of the container, so you’re actually keeping most of the flax oil in the smoothie by mixing it in after. The smoothie ingredients do stick to the sides of the glass that you drink it from, but the fat is better dispersed into the smoothie by mixing in the flax oil last (you won’t be losing some first from the blender then again from the glass you’re drinking from).

    If you prefer to make your smoothie without the oil, you may pair your smoothie with 2 tablespoons of nuts, nut butter, pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds. I highly recommend flaxseed oil rather than ground flaxseed because it contains a greater amount of MUFA (per Tbsp the oil provides 5 times more MUFA).
