Many people long for a slim and beautiful figure, but today’s hurried times rather favor lifestyle diseases, overweight, obesity and other health complications. It is often difficult in a busy day to find time for regular physical activity that effectively maintains an ideal weight. Therefore some individuals resort to various types of diets. There are countless ones to try. We bring you a tip for a diet that is based on five herbs, which you incorporate into your meals over five days. Which ones are they?
Medicinal herbs that support the weight loss process
Herbs have been used in society since ancient times. They were part of folk medicine. They helped heal wounds, infections, inflammations, and other health problems. Now, however, we will focus on those natural products that help reduce weight; they are:
- coriander
- chamomile
- rosehip
- green tea and St. John’s wort
How to incorporate herbs into the diet?
On the first “diet” day you should consume rice in combination with green tea. Cook 200 grams of rice and divide it into five portions to eat throughout the day. While doing so, sip unsweetened green tea. It has very beneficial effects on the body. It supports detoxification due to the presence of antioxidants and also helps with removing excess fluid from the body, reducing swelling, and eliminating excess salt. On the second day enjoy coriander and soft curd cheese. Ideally chop fresh coriander into small pieces and mix with 500 grams of soft curd cheese. Divide it into five portions and consume during the day. Also wash down each portion with an infusion of dried coriander. The third day will be about chamomile, honey and oats. Prepare chamomile tea with honey, which you sip throughout the day while consuming oatmeal. Cook about 250 grams of it. Again divide the total amount into several portions for the day.
Dietary regimen for the last two days
On the fourth day it’s St. John’s wort and buckwheat’s turn. St. John’s wort will support the metabolism and suppress appetite. Buckwheat is again a very diet-friendly food. Cook about 300 grams of buckwheat porridge and divide into 5 portions. Eat it throughout the day and wash down bites with St. John’s wort tea with a little lemon juice. On the last diet day try rosehips combined with apples. Prepare about one kilogram of apples for the day and eat them in various preparations — raw whole, or for example grated. Also incorporate a rosehip decoction into the daily menu. It’s suitable to drink it up to five times a day.
