De-bloat Fast
If you have a party to attend next week or a beach day planned in a couple days, there are easy ways to quickly de-bloat your body. Borden shares what foods to eat and drink and what to avoid with every ounce of your "I need to look hot this weekend" body.What to eat and drink:
*Take a digestive enzyme with each meal, which will work to help rid the body of bloat and help you digest your food. Borden says that enzymes like Digest Gold by Enzymedica, will help to get rid of any blockages in your digestive system making you feel less full and preventing gas buildup.
*Vegetables like dark leafy greens (broccoli, spinach, kale) and celery.
*Lean proteins like salmon, white fish and chicken, but don't add salt. Also, grill your meat, it's one of the leanest way to cook protein.
*Water, water and more water, drink 100 ounces to be safe. Add lemon to some of those ounces to flush sodium out of your system.
*Watermelon, oranges, grapefruit -- basically any fruit that has a high water content.
What to avoid:
*Anything that comes in a can. Preserved foods tend to either pack a huge salt punch or have added sugars.
*Red meat
*Fruit juices
*ANY carbonated drinks like soda, diet soda and sparkling water
*Dried fruit
*Corn and anything made out of it, like popcorn
*Starchy vegetables like potatoes and yams
