Weight loss is a topic often discussed by many women after tea and after meals. How to carry out weight loss correctly? Dieting seems difficult when faced with so many delicious foods, and exercise is feared to be unsustainable. Now, a method of herbal tea for weight loss and slimming has emerged. According to personal constitution, the most famous herbal tea, for example, those with虚寒 (deficient cold) constitution, can use some herbal teas that remove deficiency and cold dampness, such as rose hawthorn tea, jujube tea, etc., to improve appetite, strengthen the spleen, and replenish Qi and Qi.
So how to make these herbal teas? Each herbal tea has its own specific therapeutic aspects. For people with different physical constitutions, for example, those with yin deficiency can use some herbal teas that replenish the Qi and blood. Below, we introduce two common herbal tea weight loss methods.
Jujube Rose Hawthorn Tea
Effect: This tea can help with digestion, reduce fat accumulation, improve appetite, and replenish the Qi and blood. During this process, you can also achieve weight loss effects without dieting.
Ingredients: 10 red dates, a small handful of rose petals (about 3-4 petals, it is best to buy some crushed ones to get more flavor), 10 grams of hawthorn (about 8-10 slices), 15-20 goji berries, 25 grams of lotus leaf powder (about three handfuls, if it is not in powder form, you can use whole lotus leaves), half a lemon (in fact, you can substitute with 10 grams of orange peel), a small handful of white chrysanthemum flowers (4-6 flowers, a handful refers to the amount pinched by three fingers).
Preparation:
1. Boil 1800cc of cold water with goji berries, roses, hawthorn, lotus leaf powder, and chrysanthemum flowers (all of these materials are dried) together, and place them on the stove until they boil for about 15 minutes.
2. Then add the sliced lemon and turn off the heat after one minute. Only leave the tea, and the rest can be poured out.
Tips: You can drink one or two cups a day. Once the intestines and stomach adapt, you can drink it as tea. When you are almost thin enough, you can extend the interval to once or twice a week, and it can be drunk hot or cold.
Lavender Mint Tea
Effect: Lotus leaf has been a good weight loss medicine since ancient times, with effects such as clearing heat, diuresis, reducing fat, and promoting defecation. I specially recommend lavender mint tea because it is not only delicious but also beautiful. It is very beautiful when lavender waves in the water.
Ingredients: 3 grams of lavender, 3 grams of mint leaves, and an appropriate amount of honey.
Preparation: Put lavender and mint leaves in a cup, add 200 milliliters of boiling water, cover and steep for about 5 minutes, then add honey and mix well.
The respective effects of these two teas are hawthorn rose tea and lavender mint tea. Hawthorn rose tea can help with digestion and fat reduction, as well as replenishing the Qi and blood. During this process, it is very helpful for both women who want to lose weight and those who do not. The benefits of replenishing the Qi and blood come from jujube and rose, while lavender mint tea mainly has the effects of clearing heat, diuresis, and cooling. These two kinds of tea are not only good for weight loss but also excellent for daily urination and intestinal waste cleaning, making them great tea options.
