Fenugreek can improve glucose and fat metabolism, increase insulin sensitivity (blood sugar control), and has antioxidant properties (14).
Cucumbers aid hydration as they comprise 96% water along with vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. That helps to flush out toxins from the body and keeps you full on little calories (15).
Pair this drink with a balanced meal that combines protein, fiber (fruit/ veggie/ whole grain) and fat.

1 cup coconut water
¼ cup pineapple
½ teaspoon ground fennel seeds
Pinch of black salt
2 scoops protein powder (egg white, pea protein, or whey-casein blend)
How To Prepare

Benefits
The blend of carbs, electrolytes, protein, and anti-inflammatory compounds in this drink makes it a great post-workout option!
Coconut water is a great source of potassium, which helps your body flush out sodium and therefore reduces excess water weight. Potassium also keeps your heart and muscles healthy and supports proper kidney function (16).
Pineapple contains bromelain, which supports digestion, reduces inflammation, and helps prevent excess blood clotting (17).
Fennel seeds stimulate digestion, which helps prevent bloating, heartburn, and nausea. A clean colon helps in proper absorption of nutrients for energy and helps to flush out toxins (18).
The protein powder keeps you full and supports muscle mass and recovery.
