Juices to take away hunger are a great way to reduce food intake, especially if they are drunk before meals, thus favoring weight loss.
The fruits used for the preparation of juices must be rich in fiber, as is the case with melons, strawberries or pears, for example, as they swell in the stomach, increasing the feeling of satiety. In addition, a dessert spoon with flaxseed or oatmeal can also be added which, also due to its fiber content, contribute to enhance the satiety effect of the juices.
