Tea Detox Cleanse
Tea detoxing
is a great way to get rid of some excess water weight and bloating, once every
6 months it is a good idea to try and drink 4-5 cups of different teas to
detoxify your body.
While you
are detoxing avoid processed foods, sugar, alcohol, gluten, and low-fat
foods like low-fat milk that can actually promote weight gain instead of weight
loss. Cutting out these types of foods will help boost your metabolism and help
your body get rid of excess water.
Here are some of the teas and the time of the day each tea is suitable for you to take.
Breakfast Tea: Dandelion
Dandelion leaf or dandelion root tea is an herbal tea
that can help improve your liver function, clear up your skin, promote better
digestion, and lower blood pressure. Dandelion tea is a little bitter so ad a little
honey to taste. Dandelion tea is a good detox tea to have along with your
breakfast and you can have up to two cups per day.
Lunchtime Tea: Fennel Seed and Ginger Tea
Have a cup of fennel seed ginger tea to help reduce
indigestion and minimize abdominal bloat. This type of tea increases satiety
and won’t over stimulate your gut. To make the tea, infuse a half teaspoon of
crushed fennel seeds, a teaspoon of chopped or minced fresh ginger, and a
teaspoon of honey in boiling water.
