Drink This Tea To Eliminate Abdominal Fat

While improving lifestyle habits according to the doctor’s recommendations, the following tea can be taken as a supplement. This is a natural drink, very easy to prepare at home.

Eliminating abdominal fat is the goal of many people who currently either have a few extra kilos or are overweight or obese. Therefore, they try to find different solutions that allow them to improve their health and, in general, their quality of life.

While it is true that following the doctor’s instructions will be essential, it is necessary to improve each and every one of the habits and try to learn to maintain a healthy lifestyle over time, with the flexibility that this entails, of course.

Many times, people believe that adopting a healthy lifestyle implies depriving themselves of this and that and, in a way, “punishing” themselves for having eaten. And really, this is not so.

Adopting a healthy lifestyle implies learning to make the right decisions, depending on the needs of the body. Do not deprive yourself just for the sake of it, but understand why some edible (or why certain amounts) do not work well and what alternatives there are, among other aspects.

Taking into account that this is not achieved overnight and that along the way it is appreciated to have several options, both for eating and drinking, here is a recipe for a tea that, according to popular beliefs, can help eliminate abdominal fat.

The contribution of the tea ingredients

The tea that helps to eliminate abdominal fat is made up of healthy foods that help reduce inflammation and eliminate retained fluids in the body. Let’s see more about them below.

Lemon

According to data from the Spanish Nutrition Foundation (FEN), lemon is a food that not only contains vitamin C, but also soluble fiber (pectin), organic acids and flavonoids.

In the popular realm, it is said that your acidity is what helps you burn fat. However, from a scientific point of view this is not correct. Lemon acids are distributed throughout the body to burn fat, but instead go into the digestive system.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon is a well-known spice because it helps regulate blood glucose levels and has a unique aroma and flavor, which are very pleasant in various recipes. From dishes to desserts.

According to data from the FEN, cinnamon is a source of protein, iron, calcium, zinc, potassium, selenium, vitamins B6, C, phenols and aldehydes. Therefore, cinnamon is a spice with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

It does not help burn fat as such, but it can help give food a pleasant taste and reduce inflammation in the body.

Honey bee

Despite the fact that honey is rich in calories, it is also a food that can be beneficial in the diet when consumed in moderation, within a balanced diet.

Honey contains several antioxidants that contribute to the health of the body.

Ginger

Ginger is a food that also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, therefore, it can be beneficial when included in a diet to lose weight.

This food stimulates the production of gastric juices, which reduces the discomfort associated with indigestion and favors a better absorption of nutrients and the elimination of retained liquids.

Several studies have been carried out in rodents to find out the effect of certain compounds in ginger in the body, in order to determine in what aspects it may be useful. To date, the results have provided valuable data, but more is still needed.

There is the hypothesis that some compounds of the spice could have some relation with the levels of serotonin in the brain and that therefore, perhaps it could promote the feeling of satiety and thus help to control the anxiety to eat.
