Lose Weight Smoothie With Cilantro

A few years ago, if you asked me to eat or cook with cilantro, I would’ve rejected the suggestion because I thought it tasted bad. Cilantro (sometimes called coriander) is an herb that most people love or hate. The divide is largely due to an olfactory gene called OR6A2, which gives cilantro an unpleasant “soapy” flavor for some people.

But now, I’ve fully embraced this health-boosting herb as a garnish for rice and salads. I’ve also been looking for new ways to use cilantro, and found a unique one: enjoying it in a fresh and healthy green juice!

Despite cilantro’s potentially off-putting taste, it’s worth considering (if you can tolerate it!) in juice form. You’ll get key nutrients such as vitamin C, potassium, and beta-cryptoxanthin. Plus, you can add other ingredients to the juice, such as citrus or ginger, for extra flavor and to help eliminate any soapy taste.

Similar research published in the International Journal of Agriculture and Biology looked at the weight loss benefits of consuming coriander seeds for obese rats. Researchers found that cilantro’s nutrients have been linked with the following benefits:

As a result, rats who consumed the seeds experienced a boost in their liver health and a decrease in their visceral (or abdominal) fat. So, whether you call it coriander or cilantro, this herb has indisputable health advantages — and there’s no better way to get them than from making a tasty juice.

Be sure, though, to consult with your doctor before starting a dietary regimen like a juice cleanse. This will ensure that it works with your individual health needs and does not exacerbate pre-existing conditions.
