DRINKS TO BURN STOMACH FAT
10 BEDTIME DRINKS THAT BURN STOMACH
The road to losing weight, specifically stomach fat, can be such a discouraging process, especially when you must deal with stubborn belly fat. But it is possible to trim off a muffin top even while you sleep. We want to share several bedtime drinks that will help burn stomach fat faster:
1. CUCUMBER JUICE
Juice fresh cucumbers for a flavourful 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, fibre, minerals, and vitamins that work for weight loss. An intake of cucumbers in plenty amounts will not 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 is 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 have 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 are drinking this concoction during the summer.
5. PINEAPPLE JUICE
Pineapple adds positive value to your weight loss goals because it is an antioxidant, low in calories and rich in fibre.
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 will not 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 is 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 diarrhoea, 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 is hydrating and filling. Aside from that, it is 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.
FINAL THOUGHTS
These drink suggestions are so easy to prepare. You can modify or add more healthy ingredients to any of these bedtime drinks to your preference. If consumed regularly, you will soon see the effects of the drinks on your stomach fat. Remember, positive thinking and the will to lose weight is all you need to achieve your stomach fat weight loss goals!
Enjoy 😉
