Chia seeds are full of fibre, which will help you feel fuller longer while adding omega-3 fatty acids, iron, calcium and antioxidants to your day. This makes them a superfood and an excellent choice for weight loss and reducing inflammation. Cocoa powder is loaded with so many good, health-promoting nutrients, including potassium, magnesium, zinc, selenium and vitamin K.
Looking for a vegan option? Use plant-based protein powder instead of regular whey protein powder or omit it altogether.
