1. Two drinks that can "turn off" hunger: V8 vegetable juice and smoothie.
What drink can you drink to lose weight? Generally speaking, the function of drinks is to quench thirst. Some drinks can not only quench thirst, but also make people "full" and have the additional function of controlling appetite. Representatives of this kind of drinks are V8 vegetable juice and smoothies.
Studies have found that drinking a glass of V8 juice or Smoothie 15 20 minutes before meals can reduce the calorie intake during meals. The reason is still largely a mystery. But the researchers believe that this is related to the viscosity and calorie density of these two drinks. Remember to drink before meals ― if you eat between meals, you won't lose weight.
2, weight loss alcohol: vodka soda
Are you a frequent party guest? Try vodka soda.
The milder the wine, the lower the calories it contains. Therefore, vodka or gin mixed with soda water (no calories or low calories) can reach the weight loss standard-80 to 90 calories per cup.
3. Efficient weight loss drink before exercise: green tea.
A study found that green tea extract can improve people's endurance during exercise by 24% and increase fat consumption. Japanese researchers did experiments with mice. They threw some mice into the pool and exhausted them. The results showed that mice fed with green tea extract had longer physical strength, and after 10 weeks, they consumed significantly more fat. The organizers of this study believe that drinking a cup of green tea before exercise has the same effect on the human body.
4. Weight loss supplement after exercise: skim chocolate milk.
It's certainly wise to have a drink after attending a taekwondo course or yoga practice, and this time is also an opportunity for you to lose weight. If you can accept it, milk is an excellent drink to restore your strength. Its calorie protein ratio is very suitable for human needs ―― there are about 3 to 4 calories per gram of protein.
Then why chocolate milk? Because cocoa beans in chocolate contain antioxidants, which can help muscle cells repair. If you have difficulty buying milk in the gym, you can bring your own bag of convenient breakfast milk.
Drinking ice water has a similar effect. A new study in Germany found that drinking cold water helps to burn calories. Drinking two glasses of cold water (below 22 degrees) can consume about 25 calories. 40% of heat is used to "heat" water to the same temperature as body temperature. Drinking a liter of cold water every day can lose 5 pounds a year.
