8 DRINKS THAT CAN BURN YOUR FAT

Spread the love

The secret to
losing weight isn’t just watching what’s on your plate; it’s also about
watching what’s in your glass. Popular soft drinks, fruit juices, and energy
drinks can be loaded with added sugars and carbohydrates that can sabotage your
weight-loss strategy. In this article, bebeakinboade.com presents to you drinks
that can aid in weight loss.
WATER
We all know this
one, but it’s important to remember that water is the single best choice for
effective weight loss. 

Water

 Drinking a couple
of glasses of water before a meal can make you feel full quicker. While drinking  8 glasses of water per day is important to
keep your body hydrated. Also, drinking
ice-cold water can even make your body burn around an extra 60 calories a day
as it takes your body more energy to heat the water up once it’s in your
system.

Try adding fresh
lemon slices, lime, cucumber, and even a slice of tomato to add flavor without
adding many calories.
GREEN TEA
Green Tea
Green tea is one of
the best teas around to help with weight loss. It’s packed with antioxidants
that promotes good cell health but also contains catechins which helps to
regulate blood sugar levels, thus preventing hunger spikes throughout the day.
Used longer term, it can also inhibit the body from storing excess fat. Recent
studies have shown that just 3 cups a day long term can help you burn around
33% more fat on a daily basis!
MILK
Milk is an
excellent source of lean protein, vitamin D, and calcium that can help build
your muscles and keep your bones strong.
Milk
Larger muscles need
more energy (calories) to function and therefore aids weight loss. Make sure
you don’t opt for full-fat milk though. Non-fat, skimmed or low-fat are all
good choices.
PROTEIN SHAKES
The downside to these
is if you don’t do any exercise, the protein can turn to fat. Be sure to take a
protein shake immediately after exercise (unless you have kidney problems as
too much protein can damage them). They’ll aid in muscle growth which in turn
means a faster metabolic rate due to leaner muscle needing more energy. Protein
shakes have shown to also be great to dampening down hunger cravings. They can
now and again be great for small meal replacements, but be sure to have a full
breakfast and a full main meal too.
VEGETABLE JUICES
Drinking a
vegetable juice before your meals may cause you to eat around 135 fewer
calories. Whether in a can, bottled, or homemade, vegetable juice is an
excellent way to get the fiber and nutrients your body needs to fuel your
weight loss. If you can find a low-sodium variety, even better. The veggies
will keep you fuller longer and the tangy flavor will keep your taste buds
happy.
COFFEE
Coffee contains
caffeine which can act as an appetite suppressant. Coffee has also been shown
to stimulate thermogenesis which speeds up your resting metabolic rate, meaning
you burn more calories whilst not doing physical activity. Be sure to stick to
skimmed milk though and be careful what else you put in, such as sweeteners and
sugar!

SMOOTHIES
The thickness of
smoothies can help kill your appetite, but not only that, you can lose an
additional 61% fat by adding yogurt to them due to the calcium and protein. The
calcium in yogurt helps you burn fat and it also limits the amount of fat your
body can make.
Smoothies are a
superb weight loss booster!
COCONUT WATER
Coconut Water
contains more electrolytes than most fruit juices and energy drinks without the
extra sugar & artificial flavorings. Coconut water naturally speeds up your
metabolism & it gives you more energy so you can workout longer with more
intensity to lose weight faster.
