Fresh lemon juice. It is recommended to dilute it with water and add some honey. This drink is a great source of antioxidants that helps to use fat for energy production. Keep in mind that this beverage has quite many calories, so you shouldn’t drink more than 2 glasses of it per day. The best time to drink it is in the morning, before working out or doing some slimming treatments.
Vegetable juice. Compared to fruit juice, vegetable juice has more calories and they are also rich in vitamins, minerals and flavanoids. It increases metabolism and helps to remove excess fluids. It especially useful to make celery, tomato, pumpkin and carrot juice. If you think it’s too thick, you can mix it with water.
Milk . Due to the special structure of milk protein it provides long- lasting feeling of satiety and also reduces cravings for sweets . It promotes fat burning, but only if you drink it moderate amounts ! In other words, 18 % fat cottage cheese will not help lose weight, 9% – either. Milk should contain not more than 3.5 % of fat.
