January and the resolutions to lose those extra kilos

January is the month of new resolutions, habit changes and going back to the gym. At Weider we want to help you make January as bearable as possible so that you don't give in to the temptation of abandoning your goals, so we bring you a diuretic pineapple smoothie, if you are on a diet or if you simply want to cleanse your body of the excesses of Christmas.

Our diuretic smoothie proposal is loaded with pineapple, this wonderful tropical fruit helps to alleviate digestive system disorders and also fights fluid retention. That is why it is an ideal fruit to drink after a big meal.

To this diuretic smoothie we have added the Vegan Protein in pina colada flavour, as it is the most ideal for this smoothie due to its flavour. To add the protein your body needs, the use of this protein also makes the smoothie suitable for vegans and those intolerant to lactose and gluten.

A little cucumber for the amount of nutrients and fibre it provides, and a little ginger to aid digestion complement this diuretic smoothie.

So now you know, whether you're on a diet or just want to eliminate fluids from your body or help some digestion, this smoothie is perfect for that!
