This smoothie is a real treat and is packed with nutrients. Studies have found that cocoa helps to regulate energy use and metabolism while increasing feelings of fullness. Bananas are a good source of fibre. High-fibre foods help you stay full longer, and help you consume fewer calories. Flaxseed is high in fibre, low in carbs, and contains omega-3 fatty acids, all which help weight loss.
