What does the ingredients in Dr. Oz’s Fat Flush Water really do?

Grapefruit

The large amount of Vitamin C actually turns fat into fuel.  Grapefruit has been labeled lately as the perfect fruit.  Why? 

Grapefruit

 

Grapefruit packs a punch!  

Fat Flush Water

Fat Flush Ingredients

Cucumber is another fabulous ingredient in theFat Flush Water.  Cucumber actually helps make you feel full and is mostly water which makes it a natural diuretic.  This means less bloating and holding onto to water.

Tangerines are one of my favorite fruits too.  I make the Fat Flush Water at least twice a month.  All of the fruits here are organic.  That is really important since I am leaving the skins on.   The tangerine will  increase your sensitivity to insulin.  Stabilizes blood sugar and stimulates genes to help you burn fat. 

Peppermint helps and contributes to a calming in your stomach and better digestion.  …

Dr. Oz’s Detox Plan

My problem has been tummy bloat over the age of 40. When you hit the 40’s your metabolism slows so you have got to add in exercise and work that diet. We are still working on ridding our bodies from our weekend over indulgences. To lose weight after 40, you need to understand that imbalanced hormones and chemicals have a huge impact on our weight and our health.. Making foods with specific ingredients to help the body is all about educating ourselves. I am not a certified anything, just a women in her 40’s that are making changes for my husband and I that are working. Hope you enjoy this skinny over 40 recipe adaptation of Dr. Oz’s Detox Plan To Flush Fat and lose Belly Fat.

Green Tea with Ginger & Lemon for Weight Loss

Green Tea for weightloss

Green Tea with Ginger & Lemon to help with weight loss

I am thrilled to add another Detox weight loss natural drink to our diet. I have read so many interesting articles and watched videos on the benefits of Green Tea and weight loss. Drinking green tea may fight fat. Substances found in green tea known as catechins may trigger weight loss by stimulating the body to burn calories and decreasing body fat.

Source January issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Great article on WebMD about Green Tea and fat fighting. I have been drinking Green Tea for many years but not consistently. We drink Green Tea with Lemons and Ginger to really pack a punch!

Ginger It can be used to ease indigestion and reduce gas, bloating along with flatulence. The spicy component of ginger can also rev up your internal fire along with upping your metabolism.

Lemon From a lot of reading, the phytochemicals in lemons do some sort of stabilizing magic on the catechins when they’re in your digestive tract. What does that mean? When you sip Green Tea your body may destroy good enzymes in the tea. Lemon will counteract that. Every morning I drink a warm Lemon Ginger & Cayenne detox drink to help detox my body.

This blog is all about being fit and healthy over 40. The Skinny over 40. I am starting off with my detox drinks and detox recipes. Recipes and drinks to help you lose the bloat. I hate this word but have to say it. Lose the Muffin Top. How do you lose a muffin top? Two fold. Start by cleansing and truly cleaning out the gut. Well watch for a detailed post on this, secondly exercise. Try to drink three glasses a day, do this for at least four weeks to see your own weight loss and please share it with me!

Apple Cinnamon Metabolism Water

This year is off to a great start for my hubby and I!  We have moved my blog in a new direction and are working hard on posting every day and making healthy eating and workout videos.  Sundays are filled with scheduling posts and scripting videos.  I have been drinking lots of different detox drinks to really flush my system.  Apple Cinnamon Metabolism Water is said to boost your Metabolism with cinnamon and apples. I was stuck at 126 pounds and for the last few weeks could not get that number down until drinking the Apple Cinnamon Metabolism Water. I weighed myself like I do every night and was down to 124. Now I am not saying the drink did it because I have also been drinking the Lemon, Cayenne and Ginger detox drink daily….
