Are you a breakfast eater or do you skip it like many of us do? I would like to share a recipe for an easy to make cleansing breakfast that uses simple detox foods that can help you to lose weight naturally and beat your food cravings?
We all need to eat breakfast
to start the day with a supply of energy and to keep our blood sugar level stable. If you don’t feel hungry in the morning, it might be because you had your last meal too late.
As we get older try to remember this famous saying:”Eat breakfast yourself, share lunch with a friend, give dinner to your worst enemy.”
The older we are, the less we should eat in the evening. It makes sense to make lunch or even breakfast the biggest meal of the day.
Try this easy detox cleansing breakfast recipe for weight loss detox and to have energy to start your morning and feel happy all day long.
Ingredients:
- 3 tbsp uncooked oatmeal
- 1 tbsp raisins
- 2 tbsp walnuts
- you can add sesame, seeds, pine nuts, sunflower seeds
- 1 tbsp flax seeds
- 1 pinch cinnamon
- 1 apple, sliced
- 3 strawberries, sliced
- 1 pear, sliced

Oatmeal, apples, pears, strawberries (only organic) contain soluble fiber to help soak up toxins in the intestines and remove them from the body.
Raisins rich in fiber and inulin (fiber-like carbohydrate) help to have a healthy colon.
Walnuts are source of glutathione, which we need to remove fat-soluble toxins.
Sunflower seeds, almonds, sesame seeds, peanuts are rich in B complex and support proper liver function.
Directions:
Place oatmeal in the bowl, pour ¼ cup boiling water and leave to soak for 5 minutes. Add fruits, berries, nuts, flax seeds, cinnamon.
Bon Appetit!
Breathe, smile and be happy.
