Best Teas to Drink for Weight Loss and Overall Wellness

Hey Everybody!! Where are my tea drinkers???? Where are my tea lovers???

So I must give a proper disclaimer that tea can’t really melt fat, but there are certain teas that can heat up the body and lower appetite levels and give massive amounts of antioxidants and drain water weight.

So let’s get to it..

Chai Tea (I know Chai means tea lol) but I am referring to the Indian Spiced Tea, the spices have many health benefits and one of them is warming the body up. If you know a little about the Ayurveda lifestyle the focus is warming foods and looking at your body as an oven. So in that mindset one might conclude that chai could melt fat, but it does lower blood sugar levels because of the cinnamon in it and boosts metabolism (I.E your oven) lol.

Many people focus on Green Tea as a fat burner and immunity drink but what you are missing out on is Matcha Green Tea, it’s a more pure substance compared to green tea, it’s really green, like really green and strong. It knocks most “antioxidant” foods out of the park!! It also has a strong caffeine element which means it curbs your appetite as well. Just two cups a day will do you good but I use the powder in my protein shakes.

Ginger Tea, now you can buy the tea bags but I make my own by making a ginger juice and mixing the concentration in tea or juice or smoothies!! Ginger is an anti-inflammatory amongst other things. The ginger warms your body up; it’s a sweet spicy root veggie. I use it as a cleansing effect as well because it’s a stimulating spice just like cinnamon (talk to your doctor’s pregnant mamas before consuming).

Dandelion Tea: Do you remember the “Weeds” you would see in your backyard and your parents would say it’s a weed and tell you to put it down!!!!??? Well no parents not a weed, let’s put some respect on this herb and all the other herbs that we walk on that can provide healing. So about dandelions, dandelion is like a one of those wellness teas for immunity boosting greatness. But for this article , we will talk about its water weight benefits, it can help you pee the excess water weight from your body, aim for 1-2 cups a day, bye bye bloat , it’s also good for overall detox especially with Peppermint, which I’ll talk on next.

Peppermint Tea…..Ahhh refreshing isn’t it. I wouldn’t suggest a man to drink or ingest too much of the tea because it does deplete testosterone. Peppermint does help alleviate bowels, so if you combine peppermint and dandelion tea at night well I don’t have to say too much right lol.

All in all tea is always better then juice and super low in calorie, use stevia and you really have a low calorie drink that’s super beneficial to your body. Tea doesn’t replace hard work and effort (eating healthy overall and moving how you like) but it can help assist you on your journey. Just like tea, I can add value to your wellness journey, are you interested in possibly working together, read about my lifestyle program and set up a discovery call conversation to see if we are a great fit.
