By Betty West


Forget the latest diet recommendations and exercise fads you have been hearing about. Actually, it can be easier to cut the excess pounds without having to strain yourself. In fact, losing the excess calories can be as easy as just sitting back and taking a cup of tea every day, while relaxing. It sounds so easy, yes, true, it is actually that easy. The herbal tea for weight loss is not a myth, it has worked for very many people, and it can work for you, all you need is to give it a try.

Herbal tea is a very low-calorie beverage and, therefore, reduces the calorie intake. As such, it should be taken as an alternative to the high-calorie beverages. The tea can be made from a wide variety of herbs, the common ones being ginger roots, red raspberry leaf, chamomile, and cinnamon. These herbs contain as little as 2 calories per cup.

There is a catch. It is not your humble cups of the Tetley's or even the PG Tips that has these amazing powers. In order to experience these amazing powers, you have to turn to the exotic leaves. Herbal teas are the brews that are made of any other plant other than the plants considered the traditional tea plants. The herbal teas are generally low in calorie.

These beverages work in amazing ways. Just by the mere fact that they are used to replace our high-calorie drinks like sweet ice-cream, sodas, and similar drinks, it means a less calorie intake. It is good to understand that whatever you do, you can only lose weight when burning more calories than the ones you are consuming. This should be your target.

Other than the fact that these brews are low in calories, they are also said to minimize the poor dietary choices such as the sugary beverages and other high-calorie choices. When used as soup stock, they reduce the calorie content of the soups.

The other herbs commonly used to make the brew include cinnamon, the red raspberry leaf, the ginger root and the chamomile. The herbs help the consumer minimize the chances of choosing a poor diet. They may come with the additional properties such as the ability to suppress appetite, burning of fat cells, increase the rate of metabolism, and suppress the formation of new fat cells and lipids among others.

These brews have gained acceptance and popularity given that they have no side effects and come with additional health benefits in addition to reducing the body fats in the body, a fact that has led to the emergence of hundreds of brands. Even though they are generally safe, you must confirm that the brand you choose is approved by the relevant authorities that register and certifies the products in the category.

The nonherbal teas have also been found to be very effective in this regards. Catechin is a type of the green tea family that has been found to have compounds that trigger the release of the fats from the belly fat cells and increases the capacity of the liver to burn the fats into the energy. Oolong is the other effective option well known in the scientific and health fields for its ability to increase lipid metabolisms. The other solutions include the mint for its craving-crushing properties, white tea for blocking the formation of new fat cells and Rooibos tea to halt hunger.
