Carrots and ginger are foods that not only taste good, but can also help you lose weight. Simply perfect as a healthy shake.

For many people, losing weight is an issue all year round. All kinds of diets are tried, but often we find that the body does not respond to them. You lose weight, but thanks to the yo-yo effect, twice the weight is placed on your hips or the diet is too one-sided and you develop cravings. So it's a good idea to know which foods are not only healthy but also filling and then incorporate them into your diet plan. It's not just the green smoothie with oatmeal, berries, and an apple, ginger, and cucumber shake that really fills you up.

Carrots and ginger are also filling foods – ideal as a drink like coffee between fasting periods. If you don't like this, you should try cucumber, celery, pineapple juice, a squeeze of lemon, or treat yourself to a healthy celery shake.
