The basis of losing weight, of course, is proper nutrition and exercise. At the same time, it is very important to speed up metabolic processes in the body in order to get rid of extra pounds and fat deposits that accumulate mainly in the abdominal area. And fat-burning drinks will help with this, they perfectly satisfy hunger, cleanse of toxins and waste, provide energy and saturate the body with useful vitamins and microelements.
However, you should remember that drinking fat-burning drinks should not replace a healthy diet!
Let's look at recipes for effective drinks that can be prepared at home from simple and affordable ingredients!
Herbal support in the fight against fat
When planning a medicinal drink for the sake of graceful lines, it is important to consider that any tea drinks are not capable of burning fat deposits. Their actions are based on the ability to rid the body of delayed bowel movements (constipation), accumulated fluid, accelerate intestinal motility, and cleanse it of waste and toxins. For example, herbal concentrates will perfectly complement the amazing buckwheat diet. You can read about an effective sour buckwheat diet in this material.
It is noteworthy that all the gifts of Mother Nature have their own “character”, special properties that are important to take into account when making fragrant elixirs with your own hands. So:
- Stevia, marshmallow root and St. John's wort will quickly tame your appetite. After all, we know that uncontrolled eating of your favorite delicacies is not conducive to graceful forms.
- Cat grass, English mint, lemon balm - will calm you down, normalize your emotional state, and give you strength to go the “beauty distance” as a tip.
- Wild rose, elecampane, rowan, red viburnum, green tea, parsley, seaweed and stinging nettle will speed up metabolic processes and have a diuretic effect.
- Milk thistle, ginger root, dandelion, fennel, and barberry will reduce the time it takes for accumulated fat to disintegrate. How to prepare a ginger potion to reduce waist size can be found in the article about how to prepare delicious ginger tea.
- Rhubarb and anise, buckthorn and senna, motherwort activate the cleansing of the intestines from excess feces, toxins, and have anthelmintic properties.
- Pineapple extract, turmeric, garlic will accelerate the breakdown of sebaceous (subcutaneous) fiber, promote rapid digestion, and prevent excessive sweating of the skin and the appearance of unsightly folds.
Types of teas for weight loss
There are a huge number of teas for weight loss, but they can all be combined into three groups.
So, three types of teas for weight loss:
- Traditional tea made from tea leaves: green, oolong, pu-erh.
- Non-tea tea: hibiscus (hibiscus), mate, rooibos.
- Herbal preparations: medicinal plants, fruits, spices, berries.
A gradual but steady rate of weight loss comes from regular consumption of teas: white, oolong, green. Shen pu-erh (green pu-erh) will help you achieve the fastest results. It is used for weight loss in rehabilitation centers in France.
Important! Any type of green tea should not be drunk on an empty stomach due to the activation of digestion. The best time for drinking tea is after a meal, half an hour later.
The process of losing weight is accompanied by a deficiency of substances necessary for the body, weakness and loss of strength are observed. Non-tea teas help fill the lack of vitamins and microelements and give vigor and energy: rooibos, mate and hibiscus.
Herbal herbal teas should be taken in a course: daily for a week or 10 days with the same interval.
Attention! Constant consumption of drinks threatens dehydration and nutritional deficiency due to laxative and diuretic effects.
You need to drink herbal tea 30 minutes before or after meals, without baking or sweets. It is advisable to collect herbs and berries for tea yourself.
To get slim – go to the pharmacy
Oh, how nice it is to look prettier while enjoying aromatic elixirs prepared “once or twice” from bags and “pyramids”. It is convenient to brew the herbs in the package immediately in your favorite cup - add 200 ml of boiling water, cover with a saucer for 2-3 minutes. Please note: when brewing green tea, the water temperature should not exceed 88 degrees so that all active substances are preserved.
You can choose compositions from herbs that grow both in your native and beloved region, and in other areas. They are easy to find in pharmacies, health food stores, and supermarkets. Reviews from elegant beauties indicate that in combination with baths enriched with essential oils (juniper, grapefruit), they also effectively get rid of cellulite.
Friends, you can’t decide which grass kit to choose, which one is better? Let's hurry to the rescue! Proven to be excellent:
- Fragrant herbal collection “Altai”. Consists of Alexandria peppermint leaf. Alexandria leaf acts as a mild, delicate laxative, and mint leaves regulate intestinal function and prevent fermentation processes.
