Speed Up Metabolism to Lose Weight!

I have been learning about TCM, (Traditional Chinese Medicine), for many years now. It is said that a glass of warm water with the juice and pulp of half a lemon first thing in the morning is the perfect way to 'start your engine'. Lemon water is a wonderful way to clarify your body and return it back to an alkaline state, which is what your body actually prefers!

The easiest way to accelerate weight loss is to drink plenty of water and do a weight loss cleanse. These products help expel the fat toxins from your body in a very fast and efficient way. If you just can't seem to lose those extra pounds that are hanging onto you, cleanses are a miracle in a bottle!

But did you also know that... The best Traditional Chinese Medicine tip to lose weight and to rev up your metabolism using water is this:

TCM says that if you should drink warm water in the summer and cold water in the winter. But it’s exactly the opposite of what we do! But it makes sense if you think about it!

When you drink warm and tepid water in the summer, then your body has to work overtime to cool you down, which speeds up your metabolism.

Respectively, drinking cold water in the winter cools your body down and your body will have to work extra hard to get warm, and this too will speed up metabolism. As bad as it might sound initially, shivering actually helps burn calories.

Make sense? Each of these 'water' tips will speed up metabolism and help you lose weight!

When you drink all the water you need, your will also notice that you are not as hungry. Water fills you up but also energizes you! Your stomach will shrink and you will be healthier and leaner!~ Believe me, you just feel better when you flush the toxins from your body. Water is truly the only liquid that can satisfy your thirst. Clear diet drinks also 'count' as a water, but because of the caffeine and aspartame, don't consume more than one a day. Stick to water or lemon water. Just plain water is best for you!

The more water you consume, the more readily your body will get rid of excess water in it. If it knows that more water is coming, it won't hang onto the water it has in it as much!

This is especially true for people who suffer from bloating due to water weight gain. Could it be possible that you STOP drinking water because of bloating?.... so your body holds onto the excess water knowing you won't be giving it more?

The point is to get plenty of water. You will see a change if you persevere! Get plenty of *rest and exercise and drink plenty of water. You'll speed up metabolism when you consume lots of water which will help you lose weight!



*Did you know? People who sleep more weigh less because they are not awake and munching on junk foods!
