Ruby from rubynagel.com tells us a recipe for a delicious tea. The special thing about it? This tea is full of herbs that help with weight loss.
Whether it's bikini time or the holidays are over, we probably all know the desire to lose some weight and feel lighter again.
With some it goes very fast: hardly the desire is thought, is eaten for 2 days less and bing are 2 kg down.
But not everyone has this strong connection to the Kilo Fairy, who makes the pounds fall off so me-nix-you-nix. For some, it takes more effort.
If the kilos don't melt away so easily for you, then by all means read on.
I'm sharing with you a tea recipe that will help you feel lighter and lose weight in a natural, herbal way.
6 important rules if you want to succeed in losing weight
1. boost your metabolism
Move. When your metabolism is activated, it consumes more calories.
2. support your detoxification organs
Medicinal plants can support the body incredibly well in detoxification. Further down in the recipe I show you examples of suitable medicinal plants.
3. activate your excretory organs
Now that the detoxification work is done, all the garbage must be removed, of course. Here, too, medicinal plants can help very well.
4. drink, drink, drink!
In order to eliminate all waste products and toxins, the body needs a lot of still water (or herbal tea). Coffee, juice, fizzy drinks or tea do not count here.
5. watch your diet
Of course, nutrition also plays a role in sustainable weight loss. Anything else would be a lie.
When you take in more calories than you burn, they naturally store on your hips waiting to be used up.
I am not an advocate of any particular diet. What I do find important, however, is a freshly prepared, seasonal, organic and, as far as possible, regional diet.
For me, that is the healthiest way to eat. The rest is a question of quantity... the dose makes the poison.
6. keep calm
Get enough rest. A relaxed body and a calm head let go of excess kilos much easier.
5 Medicinal herbs: My proven recipe for weight loss
There are plenty of medicinal plants that detoxify the body and help with weight loss.
Here I present you my proven recipe.
It has several advantages: It tastes good, so it's easy to drink throughout the day, and you can find the ingredients without difficulty.
You need the following medicinal plants
1. dandelion
Dandelion is a classic liver plant. It detoxifies and regenerates your liver and revs up digestion.
By the way, the flower essence of dandelion helps very well with sore muscles.
2. nettle
Nettle helps to eliminate all waste products and at the same time provides important vitamins and minerals. A real, native superfood!
3. birch leaves
Birch leaves represent light, hope, lightness and new beginnings. They help to eliminate the slag substances.
4. rosemary
Rosemary brings strength, warms and stimulates the liver and circulation. Just right when you feel a little weak and tired.
5. lime blossoms
Lime blossoms* relax and calm the nerves in case of inner restlessness.
How to prepare the tea
Mix all the plants in equal parts and add a good tsp of the mixture to your jar per cup (200ml).
At the same time, bring water to a boil. Let it cool down a bit and then pour over your herb mixture.
Put the lid on and leave to infuse for 10 minutes.
Then filter the medicinal herbs. You can also let them float.
Drink at least 3 cups of herbal tea per day. Spread throughout the day. Unsweetened. For 21 days. Warm or cold.
Tip: Prepare your daily ration of herbal tea first thing in the morning and put it in a thermos.
Where to find the herbs for weight loss
You can find the herbs in health food stores, health food stores and in some pharmacies.
Look for organic quality, so as not to burden your body with additional pesticides or the like.
