When you wake up in the morning it is
likely that the first thing that you go for is something to drink, perhaps
after hitting the bathroom. After fasting throughout the night your body is
craving liquid. Many of us turn to that first cup of coffee in the mornings as
a way to quench our thirst.
While there may be some benefits of drinking coffee in the mornings, there is
something that you can drink instead that will not only quench your thirst, but
will also help you blast away fat and detox your body. This drink will make you
feel much better throughout the day all while helping you burn extra fat.
Now, you are probably curious about
what this drink could be. Surprisingly, it is a simple mix of room temperature
water, apple cider vinegar, cayenne pepper and lemon.
This drink will quench your thirst immediately and you
will see a major change in your health overall. Here are the directions on how
to make this great fat burning and detoxifying drink.
Ingredients
·
12 ounces warm water. The water should be room
temperature, not hot. Hot water will actually kill the properties of the other
ingredients because heat kills minerals, vitamins, and enzymes.
·
Juice from half of a lemon
·
2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
·
Dash of cayenne pepper
Simply mix all of the ingredients
together and enjoy the benefits throughout the day. You may want to drink it
through a straw so that the acids do not come in contact with your teeth.
You should wait at least fifteen
minutes after drinking the water mixture before eating or drinking anything
else to provide your body with enough time to absorb all of the nutrients from
the drink.
Health Benefits
This drink is simple, yet powerful. The lemon and the
apple cider vinegar will help purify your colon, which makes it easier to
absorb nutrients. In addition, these ingredients will help to improve digestion overall. The lemon will help balance
the body fluids, fight infections, and the lymph system.
The apple cider vinegar helps to lower triglyceride and
cholesterol levels. All of the ingredients work together to help restore the
alkaline acid balance of the body, which can relieve issues that result from
diets that are high in foods that produce high amounts of acid.
The flavor of this great drink may take some getting used
to. One of the ways to deal with the flavor of the drink is to add a bit of honey to it as a sweetener. As you become used to the tartness
you can use less and less honey, until you no longer need to add it at all.
This should be the first thing that you drink when you get up in the
morning. After waiting for your body to absorb it, you can then enjoy your
morning cup of coffee along with a healthy breakfast.
