Detox Drinks

4 Best Detox Drinks

Don't we all wish that there was a magic potion we could consume to prevent bloating? Well, there is!

Detox drinks are known to cleanse the body of toxins that cause bloating, indigestion and other gastric issues. You can have these once, at any time of the day but I personally prefer detoxing in the morning, on an empty stomach. There are a number of detox drinks that you can make at home using very commonly used ingredients.

Lemon Water

This is the easiest detox drink one can make.
To make lemon water, squeeze half a lemon into a glass of warm water.
According to your taste, you can add mint, raw honey, ginger, cinnamon or turmeric.

Preferably, use natural green tea leaves rather than using tea bags.
Heat a cup of water in a saucepan, add the tea leaves and dried basil to it.
Cover the pan for a minute and let it cool after that.
Separately, in a jar, add mint leaves, sliced lemon and raw honey.
Pour the cooled tea into the jar.
Add more water if necessary.

Voila! Your magic potions are ready.
There are plenty of detox drinks that you can make but I, having tried all these, can vouch for the fact that if you consume these detox drinks consistently, you'll definitely find yourself losing those extra kgs.

Feel free to try different detox drinks and choose what suits you best. Cheers!

Aerobics Exercise for Fitness What is Aerobic exercise? Aerobic exercise is any movement or activity that utilizes large muscle groups, can be maintained continuously for a significant stretch of time and is rhythmic in nature.   Two categories of Aerobic exercises: Low-to-moderate impact   These include walking, swimming, stair climbing, step classes, light water aerobics, rowing and cross-country skiing. Almost anyone in reasonable well-being can perform these exercises.
