It’s the line we’ve all heard before: drink plenty of water for weight loss. But did you know there are other healthy drinks that can do wonders when it comes to shrinking your waistline? Let us explain.
There is a variety of both hot and cold drinks that can help aid weight loss results. In fact, our favorite morning hot drink melts tummy fat. It’s time to start your day off on the right foot by enjoying a mug of our go-to warm a.m. beverage. You can thank us later.
Hot coffees and teas are traditional morning drinks that you’ve probably already enjoyed time and time again. It turns out, regularly drinking hot green tea can help you to finally see those weight loss results you’ve been waiting for.
In an interview with Byrdie, registered dietitian Jonathan Valdez explains how green tea greatly benefits your gut. “The catechins in green tea promote fat loss by increasing energy expenditure, fax oxidation, and decreased lipid absorption by the intestine,” Valdez says. Valdez further reminds us that it’s still essential to pair consumption of green tea with other healthy habits like cutting calories and increasing physical activity.
Not only can you enjoy a cup of hot green tea, you can also get green tea benefits in other ways like through green tea supplements and extract. According to Healthline, green tea extract or catechin supplements may help you lose visceral fat, which is a fat that can be very harmful to your health. Duly noted!
