Green Tea & Cinnamon – Fat Blitzing Tea Recipe
It seems almost impossible to open a magazine or stroll through your local grocery store without being bombarded by diet and weight loss advertising. While most diets and weight loss programs are nothing more than big promises highlighted by bland food and disappointed weigh-ins, it seems one of the most effective weight loss tools is an ancient combination of herbs.
Green tea and cinnamon have been used for their flavour and medicinal qualities for thousands of years. However, it’s only within the recent past its true benefits have been explored. It’s believed green tea and cinnamon consist of bioactive compounds capable of increasing your metabolism, reducing appetite and sustaining healthy bodily functions. The high antioxidant content of both compounds actively work to eliminate the harmful effects of free radicals. This protection not only leads to a healthier body, but also a slimmer figure.
While there are very little health risks associated with this fat blitzing tea, those with cardiovascular issues or serious health issues should discuss this tea with your physician. If you’re sensitive to caffeine, use decaffeinated green tea.
