Losing weight fast is an elusive dream few can achieve. Everyone wants to shed some pounds from time to time, but only a few are consistent and persistent enough to achieve their goal. Luckily, sometimes you do not need to go the gym and work your butt off to shed a few pounds.
Sometimes a simple drink is all you need. For example, this magical after-meal drink will help you lose 10 pounds in as fast as one month. Thanks to its ingredients, the beverage is rich in vitamin A, B, D, E and extremely rich in vitamin C. From a mineral standpoint, the drink contains calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese, and phosphorus.
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe, cold grapefruit from the refrigerator
- 1 tablespoon of honey
Instructions:
1) Cut the grapefruit in half.
2) Remove the pulp with a spoon and add it to a blender.
3) Add honey.
4) Mix until you get a smooth mixture.
Drink one glass after lunch every day, but make sure to wait 20 minutes after you are done with your meal. The powerful ingredients of the drink will help you burn half the calories you gained during your lunch. You can consume the drink after dinner as well, but not after breakfast.
Two of the helpful compounds in the drink include pectin and lycopene. Pectin is a compound that helps reduce bad cholesterol, triglycerides and insulin levels. Lycopene, on the other hand, helps you flush out toxins and harmful substances from your body.
Aside from aiding you in the battle against obesity and helping you lose weight, the potent beverage also helps with cardiovascular diseases and hypertension. And during the cold season, the beverage can be used as a preventive measure.
