This delicious drink got its name after its designer, the nutritionist Cynthia Sass. Sassy water is a key ingredient to the diet for flat belly, which contains a minimum number of calories and has a soothing effect on the entire body. It also refreshes and vitalizes.
In addition we will present a recipe for this kind of water.
Ingredients needed:
– 8 glasses of water
– 12 green mint leaves
– 1 middle sized lemon sliced into circles
– 1 middle sized cucumber, peeled and sliced into thin pieces
– 1 teaspoon of ground ginger root
Method of preparation:
Put all ingredients in a jug and place the jug in the fridge overnight. Strain the resulting mixture and drink the beverage throughout the day.
The concept of Sassy water is based on the fact that the human body needs at least 8 glasses of water a day in order to be able to function. This amount is only a guide and starting point because the need for fluids varies from one person to another depending on the level of physical activity.
This is why, during the four key days at the beginning of flat belly diet, it is advisable to consume the entire amount resulted from the recipe.
It is also highly recommendable to consume vegetables and fruits that contain a large amount of water. Proper hydration of the body helps to maintain the fluid level in the body and preventing constipation and bloating.
