It’s no secret that cold drinks burn calories, simply because they cool the body down, and it then needs to use energy to warm back up. However, there is an even more interesting effect happening – the cold stimulates the vagus nerve and speeds up both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, raising your metabolism naturally. The liver is also stimulated, so blood flow to it increases, clearing toxins and burning stored fat.
Of course, this is not a magic drink that will make you lose 50 pounds in a week or something, but it’s a nice way to detox the liver and see some fat loss, especially if you drink it on an empty stomach in the morning.
If you want to lose body fat and detox the liver quickly, I recommend leptitox, which will give you quick and very noticeable results just by following a few very simple dietary guidelines. Do not drink this quickly! We don’t want anyone getting a cold from this.
How it Works
The ginger also stimulates the same nerves, due to being slightly spicy. We have all heard that hot food burns calories – the chili stimulates the same nerves, which causes the body to raise it’s metabolism and you may start to sweat even when it’s cold outside. This drink does the same, only better and we avoid the sweating and feeling how, because the ice cools you down! So, give it a try. It is especially useful before a large unhealthy meal, to avoid fat storage.
Also, feel free to make your own recipe. You need acidity and spiciness, combined with ice. The ginger, honey and lemon drink tastes nice, but you can also prepare a horribly tasting vinegar and garlic drink, if for some reason you want to do that. It would have the same detoxing effect.
