  • Author: Joudia Elise

  • Yield: 1 serving 1x

Description

The viral Jillian Michaels gelatin recipe is a simple 3-ingredient weight loss drink made with unflavored gelatin, warm water, and optional lemon. This proven gelatin trick supports digestion, metabolism, satiety, and collagen production. Perfect for morning wellness routines or before meals for appetite control.


Ingredients

Scale

1–2 tsp unflavored gelatin powder (grass-fed preferred)

1 cup warm water or herbal tea (not boiling)

1/2 fresh lemon, juiced (optional)

1 pinch pink Himalayan salt (optional)

1 tsp raw honey (optional, for sweetness)

1 dash turmeric powder (optional, for anti-inflammatory benefits)


Instructions

1. Heat 1 cup of water or herbal tea until warm but not boiling (around 160-180°F).

2. Slowly sprinkle 1–2 tsp unflavored gelatin powder over the warm liquid while stirring continuously.

3. Stir well for 30-60 seconds until gelatin is completely dissolved and no clumps remain.

4. Add optional ingredients: squeeze fresh lemon juice, add pink salt, honey, or turmeric as desired.

5. Drink immediately while warm for best digestion benefits, or chill in refrigerator for 2-3 hours to create a soft jello-like snack.

6. Consume on an empty stomach in the morning or 20-30 minutes before meals for maximum weight loss and appetite control benefits.

7. Repeat daily for consistent results and improved gut health, skin elasticity, and joint support.

Notes

Do NOT use boiling water as it destroys gelatin’s beneficial collagen and amino acid structure.

Best consumed on an empty stomach for optimal glycine absorption and digestive support.

Can be taken once or twice daily: morning for energy and appetite control, or evening for better sleep.

For chilled version: pour into shallow dish and refrigerate 2-3 hours for soft jello texture.

Pair with other wellness habits like apple cider vinegar drinks, pink salt water, or anti-inflammatory smoothies.

Use grass-fed gelatin from brands like Vital Proteins, Great Lakes, or Perfect Supplements for highest quality collagen.

Store unused gelatin powder in cool, dry place away from moisture.

This recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free (without honey), keto-friendly, paleo-approved, and suitable for bariatric diets.
