The road to reducing weight, primarily stomach fat, can be such a difficult affair, especially when you have to fight stubborn belly fat. But it is feasible to cut off a muffin top even while you sleep. We wish to present many bedtime drinks that may assist in burning stomach fat faster:
HERE ARE 10 BEDTIME DRINKS THAT HELP BURN STOMACH FAT
“Both belly bulge and love handles are about excess body fat, not lack of muscle… The best way to reduce these problem areas is to reduce your overall body fat percentage, and we all know that that requires diet and exercise.” – Jillian Michaels
1. CUCUMBER JUICE
Juice fresh cucumbers for a flavorful and healthy bedtime drink. Add
water as desired if the cucumber blend is too strong to drink
“straight”. To make the drink tastier, squeeze some lemons and grate
ginger on the juice before drinking. Drink this every night for a month
and you will notice your stomach fat trimming.
Cucumbers are low in calories but loaded with antioxidants, fiber, minerals, and vitamins that work for weight loss. An intake of cucumbers in plenty amounts won’t have you packing the pounds. Instead, it helps the body level off its blood sugars and promotes hydration.
2. LEMON AND CUCUMBER JUICE
Do you notice how some restaurants serve water with slices of lemon?
Drinking lemon water provides heaps of benefits, including losing
stomach fat. A study published in the Journal of Ayurveda and
Integrative Medicine showed that people who drank lemon juice four times
a day while fasting reduced their body fat mass and improved their
lipid profile.
To make your bedtime lemon drink taste better and be more effective, combine the fruit with two cucumbers, an orange, and a pitcher of water. Add honey to taste and garnish this drink with mint as well, if you like.
3. CUCUMBER AND CILANTRO DRINK
Here’s another drink filled with antioxidants that will help flush the
toxins and bad fat from your body. Combine cucumber, a cup of cilantro
(or fresh parsley), lemon, and half a glass of water in a blender.
Sprinkle the drink with grated ginger and a tablespoon of Aloe Vera
juice. Let this combination sit for a few minutes before drinking it all
the way down.
4. GINGER TEA
Ginger has widely-known medicinal properties but a study published in
the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences revealed it also works
effectively against obesity. Drinking ginger tea before bedtime also
helps the body absorb nutrients better. Additionally, it aids in food
digestion and alleviates stomach discomfort (especially if you’ve had a
bad meal a few hours before going to bed).
If you want to make ginger tea tastier, squeeze in some lemon and add a tablespoon of honey to your drink. You can also make it into iced ginger tea if you’re drinking this concoction during the summer.
5. PINEAPPLE JUICE
Pineapple adds positive value to your weight loss goals because it’s an
antioxidant, low in calories and rich in fiber. According to the Joslin
Diabetic Center, fiber-rich foods and drinks make you feel full without
adding to your stomach fat.
Like lemon, a glass of cold, delicious, and freshly squeezed pineapple juice is always refreshing. However, you can enjoy this as a warm and soothing drink instead. Blend or squeeze pineapple juice with lemon. Add slices or chunks of pineapples to your drink, if you like. If the fruit is sweet enough, you won’t need to add honey.
6. STRAWBERRY WITH LEMON AND HERBS
Strawberries and other berry extracts have phytochemical properties that
aid in diet and protect the body from cancer and heart disease,
according to a study in the Journal of Medicinal Food. This fruit has
components which block the hormones that trigger inflammation, raise
blood sugar levels, and hinder weight loss.
Juice a lemon or lime and add a few slices of the peels into the cup. Then cut up strawberries and include herbs such as mint and tarragon into the mixture. Pour hot water over it and let this mixture settle together. Remove the lemon or lime peels and transfer the mixture to a jar. Pour cold water and ice and then add honey, depending on your preference. Drink away!
7. DANDELION TEA
Dandelion tea is effective in relieving stomach bloating, heartburn, and
other forms of stomach upset. As a natural diuretic, dandelion tea also
helps flush out water weight so you will feel lighter after having a
cup at bedtime.
8. GREEN TEA
Green tea’s chemical composition is so complex that even experts debate
on its health benefits. But scientists from Japan stated, in a 2017
study published in the journal Nutrients, that drinking green tea before
bedtime can promote better sleep quality among middle-aged people.
The caffeine content found in green tea is low, so it helps the body become more relaxed. And if you sleep better, you can boost your metabolism better to prevent weight gain. But there’s an added benefit to this drink. Because green tea is an antioxidant, it also aids in weight loss and cutting down that unwanted stomach fat.
9. APPLE CIDER VINEGAR JUICE
Whether freshly made or bought in stores, apple cider vinegar juice
offers many health benefits. As it has antibiotic and antibacterial
properties, this drink can help with stomach upset, bacteria-causing
diarrhea, and intestinal spasms. Mix one to two tablespoons of apple
cider vinegar in a glass of water. If you prefer, you can combine this
with lemon juice and a few slices of fresh apple.
10. GRAPEFRUIT AND CINNAMON JUICE
People who love a detoxifying diet mainly eat or drink grapefruit
because it’s hydrating and filling. Aside from that, it’s packed with
nutrients and helps with metabolism. Grapefruit juice may also be
freshly blended or store bought. Extract at least half a glass from this
fruit, which will be added to a syrup mixture.
You can make the syrup by mixing a glass of water, sugar to taste, and cinnamon sticks. Let this mixture simmer in a pan for seven minutes before adding the grapefruit and cold water in a pitcher. Garnish the drink with mint.
