Sage is a plant traditionally used in cooking due to its aromatic properties; however, it can also help you achieve a flat stomach thanks to its ability to regulate digestive function, among other benefits. Our friends at Salud180.com share this information with us.       Its consumption allows you to prevent and/or relieve inflammation caused by stomach discomfort, as well as by the intake of some other foods, in addition to being used as a detoxifying agent for the body, helping to eliminate toxins that harm your body.   According to nutritionist Mónica Maza, among the properties of sage for weight loss are:   1. Diuretic. It helps prevent fluid retention and is detoxifying. 2. Digestive: It promotes intestinal transit, combats constipation, and stimulates the gallbladder. 3. Carminative: It prevents the accumulation of gas and flatulence, as well as bloating.   To take advantage of the properties of sage, it is recommended to consume it as an infusion, as suggested by innatia.com, which is prepared as follows:   Ingredients 1. One liter of water 2. Five bay leaves 3. One stick of cinnamon 4. A handful of sage leaves 5. One lemon.   Preparation Boil the water and add the bay leaves, cinnamon stick, and sage. Cover the pot and let it boil for about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before straining.       This infusion can last you three to four days, during which it is recommended to have a diet mainly based on vegetables for proper detoxification.   You can drink it cold or hot accompanied by a few drops of lemon; it is ideal to take it on an empty stomach as it stimulates your digestion better for the rest of the day, as well as aiding in the elimination of fats and toxins.
