For weight loss, don't just randomly add things to your protein shake based on internet fads. Stick to basics: water or unsweetened almond milk, maybe a handful of spinach (you won't even taste it!), and a few berries. Always verify with a nutritionist or doctor, don't just trust anything.
Be very careful what you add. I once added some 'superfood' powder based on an online tip and had terrible stomach issues. Stick to simple, natural things like water, a few berries for antioxidants, or some spinach for nutrients without many calories. If you're serious about weight loss, please see a doctor or a registered dietitian for a personalized plan to avoid complications.
I've been looking into this too! Most articles say to keep it simple. Water, maybe a handful of spinach or some berries. Some people add chia seeds for fibre. The main idea is to keep it low in calories and sugar while still feeling full. I'm trying to find recipes that aren't bland!
Yaar, actually, less is more for weight loss. I just use water or unsweetened almond milk with my protein powder. Sometimes a few ice cubes for consistency. If you want more, add a little fruit like half a banana or some berries. Avoid sugary stuff, that's the main point, na?
At my age, I just add 'hope' and 'regret' to my shake, haha. But truly, for weight loss, stick to water or unsweetened plant milk. A few crushed almonds or chia seeds give good texture and fibre without too many empty calories. Less sugar is always the way to go.
