Omega-3s are important in any diet. Full of healthy nutrition such as antioxidants, fiber, calcium, and satisfactory feelings, chia seeds are a great source of omega-3's. Otherwise, opt for a fatty fish such as salmon or a daily vitamin.
9 Hydrate... then HYDRATE Again
Many people do not drink enough water in a day, leaving them bloated and hungry constantly. If you're properly hydrated you will quench your desire for snacks, beat belly bloat, as well as boost your metabolism.
