The #internalshower has over 66 Million views on Tiktok alone, but does it actually work?
What Is The Internal Shower?
The Internal Shower as it’s been named is a very simple drink. consisting of:
- 6oz water
- 2 tbs Chia Seeds
- Dash of Lemon Juice
Add the chia seeds and lemon to the water and leave for at least 15 minutes as the chia seeds will begin to soak up the water, expand and the water becomes jelly-like in consistency. Then throw it down the hatchet and wait.
