While parsley is low in calories, it contains vitamins A, B, C and K as well as minerals such as iron and potassium. It also works as a natural diuretic which can help to flush away toxins and excess fluid. Another important factor that parsley helps with is in maintaining blood sugar balance, and the chlorophyll content can aid weight loss. It also contains enzymes that improve digestion and play a role in losing weight.

Lemon juice, a favourite among weight watchers, boosts hydration in the body, helps in digestion, and maintains the body’s pH balance.
