Delicious Ginger Detox Drinks for Weight Loss


Delicious Ginger Detox Drink for Weight Loss

I hope you had a joyful Christmas! If you're like me, and overindulged this past weekend and gained water weight, not to worry, you can lose it by simply drinking a delicious weight loss ginger drink (which I'll share below).

Ginger has a long list of health benefits, a few of which include: weight loss, detoxification of the body, increases metabolism, gastrointestinal relief, increases immune system, anti-inflammatory, enhances satiety, increases energy, and it's a natural diuretic--all of which aids in weight loss. 


Ginger helps the body to shed fat by improving digestion by increasing the pH of the stomach and stimulating the digestive enzymes to break down food for better absorption.

It also aids in detoxing the body, which aids in the body’s ability to shed weight faster. Because ginger also has a high fiber content, when eaten fresh, it increases gastrointestinal motility. This enhances the body to absorb nutrients more efficiently and excrete non-essential food quicker.

A healthy digestive system that works efficiently can help process ingested food more proficiently, and this can contribute to weight loss because the bulking parts of ingested foods can be processed and eliminated quickly from the body.

Studies suggest that ginger is also a thermogenic agent that can help burn fat by boosting the metabolism ay a whopping 20%! Ginger increases the rate of metabolism and burns fat stores in the body, which helps in treating obesity.

By increasing the rate of metabolism, ginger can also help reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels as the body burns fat ingested more optimally.

You can use it dried or fresh ginger. It can be added to enhance the flavor of meats, salads, vegetables, soups, salad dressings, and teas. It adds a warm, robust flavor, which not only improves the deliciousness of foods and drinks, but it also aids in weight loss, digestion and clears the sinuses. In addition, using ginger to your diet is a great way to detox your body. 

Start your day off with a cup of delicious warm ginger weight loss drink. 

To start your day off right and kick your metabolism into high gear to shed weight fast, make a warm ginger weight loss drink each morning and drink it 20 minutes prior to eating breakfast. 

Here is a delicious ginger detox drink to shed weight fast and feel great!

POWERFUL AFFIRMATIONS to Create the Body & Life of Your Dreams "I f you can imagine it, you can achieve it; if you can dream it, you can become it." - William Arthur Ward ~ DESIRE FOR CHANGE ~ Who doesn’t want to feel healthier?   I don’t know a single person who doesn’t want to improve their health and well being.   20 years ago I was one of the millions that desperately wanted to be healthier and fit.   I would read fitness magazines often and dream that my physique was as strong, lean & ripped just like the fitness models I read about.   It wasn’t until I became sick and tired of being sick and tired all the time that I decided to take control of my life.    I studied all I could about exercise, diet, supplementation and the power of the mind.   I soon came to realize that by controlling my thoughts and feelings I could literally achieve my fitness goals and dreams easier and with less effort.   By implementing all whic

Protein Rich Alternative Foods for Bodybuilding

Protein Rich Alternative Foods for Bodybuilding Guest Post By: James McDuffy Contrary to what most people think, proteins don’t necessarily have to come from red meats and chicken. After all, it’s not unusual to find bodybuilders that are vegetarians, who rely completely on non-meat sources for their protein requirements. In my opinion, there’s a certain type of wisdom behind this practice. For instance: 1.        Not as expensive as meats 2.        Contain fewer calories 3.        Kinder to the environment It’s just as easy to get protein without having to resort to meat . Recently I overheard a conversation at my gym where two guys were discussing whether becoming a vegetarian would affect the muscle building process. One thing that caught my attention immediately was when one of the guys probed whether non-meat protein sources offered “complete proteins”. Around a fortnight prior to that, I read a long article discussing “complete proteins”. For those
