These plant-based protein smoothies are also popular as "zero belly smoothies". They are a part of Zero Belly Diet, a book and a diet plan created by David Zinczenko. This diet plan claims to target stubborn belly fat and promotes highly-nutritious power foods that can alleviate fat storage, boost your metabolism and tone up the muscles.

When combined with a few lifestyle changes, zero belly smoothies can show better results.

Take a brisk walk before breakfast as morning light regulates your bodys circadian clock and improves cardiovascular health.

Load your breakfast with fibre.

Choose red fruits over the green. The higher levels of flavonoidscompounds that give the fruit its red colourcalm the action of fat-storage genes.

Fill up on avocados as its highly nutritious and keeps you full for longer.

Add plant protein to your smoothies and eat eggs, whole foods and healthy fats.

Start your day by drinking citrus-infused (lemons, oranges or grapefruits) water to flush out the toxins.

While rapid weight loss is not the best strategy (as its not a sustainable practice), sometimes you have exciting deadlines to fuel your fitness goals like a cousins wedding or New Years Eve party.

So try these delicious blends once, feel the change and end your year on a positive note!
