How about you wake up and find that belly fat is gone? Too good to be true? No it can actually happen, all you need is to keep drinking these drinks I’ll prescribe to you in a short while before you go to bed every night, just keep reading on and find out.
- Water
Your keys to loosing any weight is water. I helps you feel full with less food and also increases the amount of calories burned for at least an hour after consuming it.
- Lemon
Squeeze some lemon juice into water either warm or room temperature drink. Lemons, contain a lot of vitamin C which helps to burn fat at the cellular level. The vitamin is used in transporting and mobilization of fatty acids within cells to be used as energy. This drink can be a great and healthy substitute to drinks with lots of sugar like soda, sweetened coffee or tea among others.
- Cucumber
Cucumbers are our body’s best friend; they are high I water and fiber and very low in calories (16 calories per cup). Like lemons, cucumbers have a lot of vitamin C and serves as a natural duretic. Cucumbers are also thought to boost metabolism.
- Ginger
Gingers helps controls appetite by regulating blood sugar and serum cholesterol. Spikes and dips in these numbers often lead to overeating, or excessive snacking on unhealthy foods. Ginger can also suppress the fattening stress hormone cortisol and give you a boost of energy. It’s not enough to keep you awake, but you may find that ginger means you wake up refreshed and ready to go.
- Aloe Vera Juice
Aloe Vera juice is a useful addition to this beverage because of its laxative qualities. Now, relying on a laxative for weight loss is not healthy, but in this case, we’re using Aloe Vera juice simply to regulate your body sugar. While using Aloe Vera, it is advisable to add fiber into your diet.
Always buy Aloe Vera juice that is made from the whole leaf, rather than from the gel found inside the leaf. The gel alone is packed with sugar and won’t have the laxative effect you’re looking for.
- Parsley or Cilantro
These herbs are high in the antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals associated with digestive support. They have been used for years in holistic medicine to relieve inflammation, indigestion, gas, cramps, bloating, nausea, and stress. Cilantro especially may help stimulate circulation, improve the body’s absorption of nutrients, and relieve constipation by keeping the bowels functioning properly.
The beverage we’ll describe using these ingredients is meant to be taken at night so that it can work while you’re sleeping. Digestion and demand for energy tends to slow while you slumber, so it is especially good to augment metabolism during this time.
