How To Lose Weight Using Lemon Tea:

Don’t add any cream or sugar to your lemon tea. Sugar is high in calories (1) and the cream also contains saturated fat (2). When you add milk to your tea, it dilutes the lemon tea’s benefits. To keep your tea calorie free, skip the honey (3) or the sugar and drink it plain. The refreshing lemon flavor adds zero calories to your tea.

You can make hot or cold lemon tea. It offers the same benefits. You can choose to make a steaming mug on a cold day or fill it with ice and enjoy iced lemon tea on a hot day. Aim to drink at least one, or if you can manage, two cups of lemon tea every day. It has no side effects and has many potential health benefits.

Something Important To Remember:

Lemon tea alone cannot help you lose weight. However, with a diet plan and an exercise regimen in your day, it can certainly provide you with the much-needed boost towards weight loss. Exercise is a must when you want to have a healthy and fit body. So aim to exercise for at least 20-25 minutes every day.

Choose activities that you enjoy performing. This will ensure that exercise does not get mundane and you remain motivated about achieving your goal. Lemon tea helps reduce the chances of unwanted weight gain by helping you lose weight successfully, as you are not taking in any liquid calories.

So, use these recipes and include fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet to successfully decrease your weight.
