Taken from the book by naturopath Kellyann Petrucci, “The 10-day belly-deflating diet” , this coconut and matcha meal replacement shake is a cure-all for those who suffer from a swollen stomach and want to lose weight at the same time. Low carb, packed with vitamins and mineral fats, and with medium-chain saturated fats that aid digestion and boost metabolism, the coconut and matcha meal replacement shake contains just 215 calories and can be used in place of dinner or lunch.
For those who intend to lose weight quickly and at the same time deflate the belly, we will see a special 7-day plan with this smoothie as a main meal replacement . But first the recipe, from Dr. Oz’s website.
