There are no miracles when it comes to losing the pounds you gained over Christmas. We strive to exercise and eat well to lose weight and maintain it. So, if you gained 2-3 pounds between holiday dinners with family and friends, we recommend starting to exercise to burn more fat and gain muscle
by following an easier diet with healthy foods and avoiding processed foods, which are high in fats, sugars, and calories.
If you want to lose weight during Christmas, help with weight loss is always good. So today we bring you a ginger, lemon, and cinnamon tea that you can prepare at home with water without any hassle and for very little money. Herbal teas are not only inexpensive and quick to make, but they are also healthy, hydrating, and keep you away from junk food and snacks. Sometimes you just have to boil the water and make tea to avoid opening the chip bag or the ice cream tub... It’s better not to buy them at all because they are tempting and hard to resist! This all-natural infusion of ginger, lemon, and cinnamon has a pleasant flavor and takes less than 5 minutes to prepare.
Ingredients
-1 liter of water
-5 slices of peeled organic ginger root
-Juice of 1 lemon and its zest
-One cinnamon stick
How to prepare the infusion?
Put the water in a large saucepan and add the finely sliced ginger and cinnamon stick after it boils. Let it cook for another 5 minutes and then remove from heat. Add the lemon zest and let it cool a bit before adding the juice of half a lemon. You can strain the drink, but I don’t and keep the ingredients in a glass to drink the entire liter throughout the day.
Benefits of the ginger, lemon, and cinnamon infusion
The mix of lemon and ginger is a good combination that not only gives the infusion a tangy and refreshing flavor but also contains antioxidants such as vitamin C from the lemon and anti-inflammatory substances like gingerols from the ginger. Inflammation is associated with overweight and obesity. This infusion will help regulate the level of
inflammation due to excess fat and keep your metabolism active after exercise, which is what you need to maintain and build active muscle mass, helping you burn more calories during and after exercise. Cinnamon has hypoglycemic properties, helps keep blood sugar levels steady, and prevents unhealthy snacking, especially when you crave sweets. Cinnamon replaces sugar and gives the infusion a rich flavor.
This infusion not only
can help you lose weight while exercising and paying attention to what you eat, but it can also help maintain your immune system and prevent respiratory infections such as the flu and winter colds. A bonus that benefits athletes training outdoors. Sometimes, because we want to burn more calories, we increase training duration or intensity and weaken our immune system or expose ourselves to extreme temperatures, which usually leads to respiratory infections. In Ayurvedic medicine, nutrition with natural plants is one of the pillars for preventing and curing diseases. This infusion is very typical in winter to naturally generate internal heat. This keeps microorganisms that cause infections away and helps burn more calories as long as
you live an active life and obviously maintain a proper diet.
