Eating fresh foods, and drinking healthy drinks that do not contain
artificial sweeteners can help you achieve weight loss success.
Naturally flavored and infused waters are a favorite when it comes to weight management.
They taste deliciously good and you control the ingredients.
In order to lose weight it is recommended to eat and drink more of the following:
Cucumbers:
They are low in calories, act as a diuretic, high in dietary in
fiber, and help keep the body alkaline. Cucumbers are a perfect weight
loss food.
Ginger:
A study from the Institute for Human Nutrition at Columbia University showed that when participants drank a hot beverage with ginger, they felt more full and had less chance of overeating.
Lemon:
They are high in pectin fiber, which helps suppress food cravings.
It also helps the body eliminate waste products by cleansing and
detoxifying it. Lemons are alkaline forming and will aid with weight loss.
Water:
Water is life. It keeps the body hydrated, which is important
because dehydration can slow down the fat burning process. It lubricates
joints and muscles during exercise and helps the blood supply oxygen to
muscles. Water also helps feel full during meals, so we don’t overeat.
