Good to know:

 

Spinach  provides energy for the muscles. Vitamin K and beta carotene regulate skin problems and activate the immune system. Chlorophyll supports the transport of oxygen in the cells, neutralizes free radicals and can even improve body odor.

Strawberries  are among the lowest calorie and at the same time healthiest types of fruit, because they contain a particularly high amount of secondary plant substances. These fight off free radicals, improve the transport of oxygen to the body cells, have an antibiotic effect and can protect heart and blood vessels. The high content of vitamin C stimulates fat burning.

Pumpkin seed oil and pumpkin seeds  contain large amounts of zinc. Zinc, on the other hand, is important for the immune system and activates enzymes that regulate appetite and prevent cravings. In addition, the kernels of the pumpkin bring a lot of chlorophyll, which has a detoxifying effect, among other things. The  cream cheese  has extremely good nutritional properties, especially an excellent satiety effect. It can supply the body with protein for up to eight hours.
