What troubles people the most is the excess fat on their waist and legs, which is mostly gained from prolonged sitting. Sitting for long periods not only results in a host of occupational diseases but also causes people’s originally slender figures to gradually become bulkier over time. Are you worried when you see layers of fat on your belly? Various weight loss methods are widely available, but not everyone can successfully lose weight. The key lies in choosing the right weight loss method that suits you. Today, I will share a weight loss tip.
1. Garlic, Ginger, and Oolong Tea
Ingredients: 2 cloves of garlic, 1 piece of ginger, a small amount of oolong tea
Method: Juice the garlic and ginger separately, add the tea leaves and an appropriate amount of water, and bring to a boil. Drink when it cools down to a warm temperature.
Effect: Garlic and ginger can raise body heat, promote metabolism, and eliminate fat. Brewing garlic with tea can dilute the pungent odor of garlic, making it not unpleasant to drink at all.
2. Ginger Navel Method
Cut a large piece of ginger into fine strips and pound it into a paste; use a cotton swab dipped in medium white wine (or 75% alcohol) to clean the navel and the surrounding skin; apply the ginger paste onto the navel; dip a cotton swab in white vinegar and add it to the ginger paste; cover with a large adhesive bandage, gently press down a few times for a while to warm the paste with your hand’s heat, and remove it after 8-12 hours.
The navel is a strong acupuncture point in the human body, capable of absorbing medicine effectively. It can enhance the transdermal absorption of drugs, and the heat from ginger can reach the internal organs, strengthening the pulse’s function. It is particularly effective for big bellies and constipation and also can nourish the stomach. In other words, by applying ginger to the navel, the navel will help you absorb it. Apply it every night between 9 PM and 11 PM before going to sleep. With daily persistence, you will see noticeable results in a week.
