A good partner for fat burning! Lotus leaf high fiber juice to reduce edema

High-fiber juice can help you lose weight, and when mixed with traditional Chinese medicine, it can actually form a perfect partner for burning fat! Chinese medicine practitioners say that high-fiber fruits such as guava, tomatoes, apples, and pineapples can help promote metabolism. You can also use them with Chinese medicinal herbs such as lotus leaves, cassia seeds, and motherwort, which can help moisten the intestines, promote diuresis, and reduce edema, to make a cup of "lotus leaf high-fiber juice" yourself, which is a very suitable fat-burning drink for winter.

If you want to lose weight successfully during the cold winter, you might as well make two homemade teas that have the effects of burning fat, helping to reduce body fat formation, moisturizing the intestines, promoting bowel movements, and promoting diuresis and reducing edema.

Chinese medicine practitioner Chen Meifei said that as the temperature drops in winter, the body's basal metabolic rate also slows down, which makes it easy for fat to accumulate. If you want to lose weight successfully in the cold winter, in addition to avoiding certain foods and increasing your activity level, increasing your body's metabolic rate will help promote fat decomposition.
