Tips on silhouette-refining teas
Check below what are the main questions in the preparation of teas to lose weight:
How to prepare tea correctly?
Bring the water to a boil and, as soon as the first bubbles appear, turn off the heat. Do not let it enter the boiling process. Add the herb and let it simmer for 2 or 3 minutes. Strain and then take.
The ideal measure is 2 tablespoons of the herb to 1 liter of water. If you find the flavor too strong, start with just 1 scoop. Remember that the herb must be stored in a dry, closed place and protected from light.
Can I change the taste of the tea?
If you find the herb taste too strong, you can combine the drink with lemon balm, mint, fennel, dried apple or fruit peel such as pineapple or mango.
If you want to sweeten your tea, opt for a small amount (one teaspoon) of honey or stevia.
What is the daily amount of green tea to lose weight?
The recommended daily amount of green tea for those who want to lose weight is five to six cups. However, it is necessary to be careful and consult a specialist, as, in excess, the herb can cause unpleasant effects.
Does tea bag work?
The effect of the tea bag is less, as it usually brings various parts of the plant, such as leaves stalks, which reduces the concentration of the active ingredients of the herb.
