This weight loss breakfast recipe is satisfying and will help prevent snacking during the day.
In ayurveda the key to lasting weight loss is to :
- Strengthen the agni (digestive fire)
- Support the body natural detoxification process
- Remove cause of the imbalance with suitable diet and lifestyle
