It’s hot, so I’m going to eat some? Drink these "fat-removing" teas to get rid of your fat belly

The weather is hot and I’m in a bad mood, so I just want to eat a lot? ! If you are not careful, you may eat fried chicken, desserts, and sugar drinks, and you like to stay at home and don’t like to go out for exercise. As a result, your stomach becomes fat without you noticing, and you end up with a tuna belly or a big belly. How can you lose too much fat on your body? Chinese medicine practitioners say that drinking tea in moderation has many benefits. It can not only quench thirst, promote diuresis, and lower cholesterol, but also eliminate body fat. Combined with moderate massage of the acupuncture points that reduce edema and aerobic exercise, you can easily lose weight this summer!

Ice cream, cold drinks, and high-sugar fruits are high in calories and eating too much can easily lead to fat accumulation

In addition to those who eat in a hurry because they are in a bad mood, some people like to eat strong-tasting foods, such as sour, sweet, spicy, and salty foods, in order to stimulate their appetite in the summer, and end up eating too much without realizing it.

In addition, in order to cool down in hot weather, some people like to eat ice cream, cold drinks, sugary drinks, beer, etc., but they ignore the fact that the calories they contain are very high and the sense of fullness is not strong. Therefore, after eating, they often find it difficult to realize that they have eaten a lot of high-calorie foods.

High-calorie foods are not limited to this. Eating too many fruits with high sugar content, such as grapes, lychees, mangoes, cantaloupes, cantaloupes, and sweet dates, etc.; there are some fruits that, although the sugar content per unit is not high, the total number of fruits eaten is large, so the total sugar content consumed will still be high, such as watermelon. Excessive intake will increase the risk of calorie soaring.

Chinese medicine practitioner Zeng Yiyu said that modern people generally do not get enough exercise, and they eat a lot or consume food with a high glycemic index, which causes high blood sugar in the body and causes insulin to start synthesizing fat. Therefore, in addition to the energy that the body needs to consume, too much fat will accumulate, and the waistline will expand, forming a tuna belly or a potbelly, and fat will also begin to accumulate in the buttocks.

High blood lipids and body fat and vascular aging increase the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke

In summer, in order to stimulate appetite, people eat too much heavy-tasting food such as high-fat, high-sugar, high-cholesterol and other foods, which can easily cause high blood lipids and body fat. Due to excessive intake, the liver's metabolism slows down and the activity of lipase that breaks down fat becomes weaker, which can easily cause fat accumulation. Coupled with the action of free radicals, blood lipids can easily precipitate on the arterial walls, causing arteriosclerosis. This is a manifestation of vascular aging. Be careful not to aggravate vascular sclerosis and cardiovascular diseases, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke and other related diseases.

Traditional Chinese Medicine: Drinking tea helps relieve greasiness and the effect is better when combined with Chinese medicinal materials

Traditional Chinese medicine recommends drinking tea to reduce excess fat in the body. TCM physician Zeng Yiyu said that tea is recorded in TCM's "Compendium of Materia Medica•Wood Section": "Tea, also called bitter tea. It tastes sweet and bitter, is slightly cold in nature, and is non-toxic. It is mainly used to treat fistulas, promote diuresis, eliminate phlegm, quench thirst, dissipate heat, and make people sleep less. It has a bitter taste when picked in autumn, can reduce gas, and aid digestion. The original note says: pick it in spring." Because tea is cold in nature, it is recommended to drink it in moderation after meals to help relieve greasiness, or to combine it with related Chinese medicine for better results.
