This is the first day of my Juices for Restoring, Strengthening and Flattening your Abs! Due to all the vitamins and nutrients in Juice’s from the fruit and vegetables you throw in you can really cleanse, de-tox and help re-store and flatten your abs post baby. I was always aware of the benefits of Juices but really came to incorporate them into my own diet and encourage our clients to make and drink them by Mairi Taylor, my inspirational Juice buddy at FAB fitness. Juices are also excellent for your children and gives them loads of vitamins and nutrients they need to their growing bodies! 1. You can get your daily five in one quick scoop! Many struggle to incorporate 5 portions of vegetables (or even less!) into their daily food or meals. Juicing your veggies means you can do this. Plus you can ‘pop in’ celery, broccoli and beetroot and other ‘green’ foods that your children may turn their little noses up at and in the juice format, they will not turn a hair! Crafty! 2. A nourish, a cleanse. Due to all the luscious vitamins and nutrients they contain, they can be almost more of a meal or snack. Keeping sugar cravings at bay and nourishing your pregnant or post baby body. 3. So easy to prepare and make. A great ‘Dash out of the Door’ drink (or rather food – see point above). 4. You can be creative. What I love is that you can throw it all in and experiment a little to see what tastes good. To save you the time in experimenting, I have conjured up, tweaked some existing recipes from the Juice Master, Jason Vale and will be sharing these with you over the next 7 days.

Tips:

To save time you can do a large batch of juice and freeze them. Then you just pull out and defrost for your snack time or breakfast.

The Right Juicer!

This is key – you want one that is easy to wash, ideally the parts easily detach and fit in the dishwasher. You also want one that will juice enough for more than 2 people, especially if you are making them for the whole family.

My favourite is the Philips HR1861 Whole Fruit Juicer, Aluminium.

Here’s the first Juice recipe, curtesy of Marie Paiser, one of our clients currently on our Post Baby Belly Blitz Programme. Marie has a 12 week old baby and is breastfeeding so she is finding Juicing perfect for her nutrient needs and also the nutrient needs of her growing baby.

Apple, Celery and Lime Juice

Serves 2

4 Apples – Golden Delicious or Royal Gala (go organic if you can), halve and remove core. No need to peel.

2 small sticks of celery.

1/2 lime – no need to peel.

Pop apples in first, then celery and lime. Then Juice.

Add a few sprigs of mint (chopped) if you have them.

How do you get rid of belly fat at 55?

Sass recommends eating a healthy, balanced, plant-based diet. “Plant foods rich in monounsaturated fat — avocado and avocado oil, extra virgin olive oil, whole Mediterranean olives and olive tapenade, nuts and nut butter — as part of a healthy balanced diet may help reduce belly fat,” she says.

En español | Celebrity trainer and best-selling author Jorge Cruise isn't shy when it comes to talking belly fat — and how he, 40 pounds overweight years ago, carried a lot of it. “Belly fat robs us of confidence at any age,” says Cruise, who is approaching 50 with a very flat belly. “But more than that, our waistline is our lifeline, particularly as we get older. You can have hip fat, butt fat and arm fat, and still be relatively healthy. But if you have belly fat, it will crush your health." Researchers agree: Belly fat, specifically something called visceral fat, is harmful to your health. This fat in the belly area can lead to health problems including cardiac disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, dementia and stroke. What's more, it's an indicator of premature death. This is the type of fat that affects the health of millions of Americans, with more than 50 percent of U.S. adults struggling with it, according to researchers from the National Institutes of Health.
